Riveting... it's what I do. Rivets are solid little fastener's shaped like solid pins. They come in different lengths and diameters as well as a variety of material hardnesses. I usually use alluminum and or steel rivets. You can go to wikipedia for more info... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivet Rivets are quite commonplace in aircraft building as well as other sheetmetal applications. I have also seen them used in the manufacture of trailers and some campers. Here are some videos on the subject... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DVPG8go4Jk , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpY8DEXD2g0 , and how they're made... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36ipLKiQ11M . Enjoy
