putting rivet back in chain

adjacent links to pull chain together to line the holes up. Then get a pair of pointed pliers and hold rivet ,place over hole and press in with vice grips ,tighten grips again and push further in to make sure it is located in inner link .Then remove cable tie and use chain splitter tool to push it completely in
