    Difficult time cutting rivets... Help!

    Ok, this is going to sound corny, but I am having a tough time cutting the ball joint rivets so I can replace them.

    I remember cutting them with a chissel in the past, but the chissel I have seems to stretch and elongate them badly.

    Yes my chissel is new... is there a type of cutting head that works best?

    Ok, I am done! I went a head and forged through cutting the heads off with my chissel. Just thought that the heads would pop off easier than they did.

    Note: Wack away like there is no tomorrow, eventually they'll break or your tool will!
