A question about rivets? I don't think there is a more okay place to ask I like that your first post on Dakka is one about rivets, though. You will go far, young Krangke

I haven't tried that method of rivetting, (and I can't say I fully understand what's going on there) but you can't argue with the results

It looks like they're just embossing the rivets onto the card. I guess i'll have to give it a try. They sell one on Amazon, link http://www.amazon.com/Tandy-Leather-Sewing-Punch-3229-00/dp/B0036MNY7K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1351287717&sr=8-1&keywords=rotary+hand+sewing+punch, at least for the U.S. version of the store.

its a fine balancing act between making the divot and punching out a lump.

so you have to control how far you push down the divot? Still sounds so much easier to me than cutting hundreds of tiny pieces of Rod and gluing them all over the place. I just picture myself with little rivets super glued to all my fingers.

I have a feeling that there is a lot more going on than we think. This election feels like it is the most pivotal moment in my adult life. We either go forward or backwards from here. Desperate men will stop at nothing to be in power.

You could say that, but as far as I remember there wasn't any torn out hair and bashed in heads in Loriot's version... just kidding. But it got intense and we even picked it up again when we went to the restaurant for her birthday, when she tried to make my sister take her side (which she did ). That time we were just doing it for the laughs though.
