Hugh are these solid or normal style where the metal is folded? I want solid so I can cut off the edges and make square. maybe you could just make me some square double cap rivets?? Quote

I've tested Chicago screw in my application and they loosen over time and fall out from the rough conditions Quote

Possible maybe to swap some masks to the other side? Quote

Members Mattsbagger Posted March 2, 2019 Members Report Posted March 2, 2019 If you don’t use the setter and domed anvil just a flat anvil and flat faced hammer you can get flat double cap rivets. Quote
