Members CreativeArtandSoul Posted August 31, 2011 Author Members Report Posted August 31, 2011 Try Rite On Screw Products Inc (google them,) they make all kinds of very high quality screw products for silver smiths and leatherworkers. They are brass and come in many different diameters and lengths. I'm thinking of chicago screws, don't know if you know what they are. They are used in many applications in leatherwork and western silversmithing. The ones that Rite On makes are much higher quality than most that are available, they are precision machined out of brass and the heads are much flatter than most you can buy. I'm thinking they will have them in the size that you need. They are reasonably priced and ship the same day in most cases. Bill Oooh! I really like these! Thank you so much, Bill! I truly do appreciate all the assistance on this forum! You guys are great! Cheers! Kris Quote
Members lonestar tactical Posted September 14, 2011 Members Report Posted September 14, 2011 Honestly the best that I have found - and I can not find the exact type anywhere else - is at www.knifekits.com The rivets they have available come in different sizes but the ones that I have really been using are the size 8 for .93 kydex. I am able to use the rivets to re-enforce the holes made to attach IWB loops for my holsters. They make them smaller as well for thinner materials. Good Luck Be safe, Doc Quote
Members oldtimer Posted September 14, 2011 Members Report Posted September 14, 2011 I would try using #14 copper rivets with / without burrs, peening them inside the bezel. / Knut Quote "The gun fight at the O.K. corral was actually started by two saddlemakers sitting around a bottle of whiskey talking about saddle fitting"...
