Fantastic..... I really liked the rivits and I had such a hard time with mine. I asked him how he did them. Well he put together a little SBS for me. Great way to do rivits.

Interesting way of doing rivets. I know something similar is done with plastic rod but this is the first time I see it with solder. Great idea. Thanks for posting it (and the other links).

This is how I do it by the way:

I've made these stamps in different sizes and shapes. Including some for hex nuts and so. There are also sculptors who use tubes, hyperdermic needles, technical pencils, etc. for this.
