Source for sheet metal dimplers?

.94 OR · Apr 17, 2011

I need to dimple some sheet metal so that I can recess a countersunk bolt so the head is at least flush with the surface. Who supplies these and are there any preferences for style? This is currently needed for 1/8" aluminum plate, but will likely use it on some steel in the future as well.

Thanks.

Well this is not a an official tool but if you check out the attached build log link the person used a couple items from his tool box to create a nice looking dimple.

Thanks.

I will likely come up with something similar, especially the beverages and the protein.

Use of 2 old sockets will do the trick. 1 socket bigger than the other and a BFH.
