    I can’t seem to find a affordable rivet tool and I only have a few items I need to rivet.
    I was just wondering if it’s a good idea to use short 1/8 bolts with a locknut as a alternative..

    Has anyone done this before? Is it recommendable and if so, what type of bolt would you suggest?

    Nice link.. so do I understand it correct if I get a set of transfer punches that I can use them to set the rivets on all my plastics?

    Cant find JodiG .. not a pinsider
