Awesome stuff, Dave! looks like we have over 4 people on dakka who have steampunk walkers, now! we should start a steampunk club, or something (lol, my new avatar shows a defunct idea for steampunk goggles: i couldn't get a working strap! one of them is now a monocle for a steampunk top hat, though.)

Interesting news for the league; I recently found a way to make rivets for models that involves an actual hammer! Is anyone interested in hearing this technique? it involves Dave's riveting tube idea, but eschews the sharpening with sandpaper.

Ok; here's how it works:

tools; metal tube (inside diameter = that of desired rivets), hammer, plasticard, thin, long tool (i used copper wire)

process:
step 1: position tube on the plasticard, like one would a nail
step 2: give the top of the tube a good whack with the hammer (also like one would a nail: be careful not to bend the tube!)
step 3: remove rivet with thin tool (or just pop the rivet out, if you perforated it instead of going right through, which also works)
step 4: repeat until enough rivets are produced.

That's how I just started doing it, because those tools are readily available to me (i got the metal tube from a radio antenna), and because i felt like trying it

very interesting technique, and you reminded me of when i took a trip to the bookstore on monday, and on the shelf resided a rather large (and cool looking) book entitled
"The Steampunk Bible" had alot of interesting pictures in it

hey glom... took me a while to connect you with your recent work... man i get so confused with our RL mugs ... that idea is even possible to do with expensive tool... saw many of these holepunch systems on the net already... but i congratulate you for finding a way cheaper means to do it! radio antenna... now there is a good idea! saves plenty of money...and that s not to be sneezed at!
