rivets
Hi Ken, I'll echo that, Screwfix Item code: 14233 Pop Rivet 3.2 x 10 - Pack of 500 for £ 5.28. After Boyes' el cheapo riveter fell to bits half way through rivetting, I bought the forged steel one from Screwfix, hell of a lot better. Dave.

mmmm iv been researching this quite a bit between here and locostbuilders.
and i came to the conclusion closed end, alloy rivets were the way to go  Bonzo's link http://www.shop4fasteners.co.uk/acat...d_Rivets.as p about £25 delivered though, a bit more expensive. what do other peepe think?

Sealed rivets would be my personal choice.
Perhaps a couple of builders could get together & split a box

I did the same and just used up the 3mm plate I had left. Probly heavier for it but saved me money re-using and it was alot easier to weld it on. I'm only going to use rivets for the seat back & tranny tunnel panels personally.
