Vent window riveting

Today I put the new weatherstrips on the passenger side door vent window. I got the weatherstrip, rivets, and rivet-setting punch from GMC Paul. The work was OK and I got it done, but using that rivet-setting punch is unpleasant. I ended up using screws in a couple of places. I prefer these regular rivets instead of pop-rivets, but I don't like the tool I used. I would rather use a clamping-type tool that has enough reach. Does anybody here on the forum make and/or sell a nifty tool for this? I know some of you guys are really good at making stuff, so I thought I would ask.
