| The rivet dies were not right. I reground the original. Then I decided to make my own out of a bolt. The Idea is to have a low dome that grips on the edge. If it gets too flat the edge might curl up. The general shape and what is to be accomplished by it is from Zenith. The rivets are flat head POP style rivets that are formed into a low dome head. | |||

Original "Volcano" shaped rivet. It was ugly,
high profile and didn't grip very well. |
