Where to find eyelets and tool(s)?
#10

Ron,

Just a thought .... I've not done this. Could you use a boat style rivet (solid), then drill out the centre? I think these rivets are available in mild steel and shouldn't be too hard to work with. As an alternative you could use the aluminum ones, and for any bases that require grounding you could run a short ground wire?

as I said ... just a thought.

cheers

EDIT :: so I went for a google hunt and found this place which may or may not be a place to order from, but at the least is a good source of info : https://www.rivetsonline.com/index.php
