[QUOTE="Hydrilla, post: 114295, member: 863"] Rivet info- I had this question before I did my riveting, so maybe someone else might be wondering the same thing. If you buy rivets from Lowes, the 3/16" aluminum rivets, long size is what I used and they worked out well. The medium length may have worked but I can't see a downside to the long ones. Connecting 2 pieces of 1/8" angle aluminum was no problem, and I'm sure it would do 3 if you needed it to. Oh, and pay the extra $5 for the rivet gun that rotates 360 degrees, it's worth it. [/QUOTE]
