I get the "shallow" hole ones that are hollow about halfway down. The walls are quite thick, in comparison to the tubulars. I have a hand clincher that I use that has a dome that fits inside that hollow part and fans out the end of the rivet over the burr or washer. Like the copper, you need to just about destroy the leather to get the rivet out. If anyone wants to know resources, let me know. Please let me know your resources. I've recently moved toward copper rivets, but I'm curious to know more about this method for brass rivets. Edited July 2, 2018 by doorty added picture Quote
