I have found a very easy and simple way to make cool rivets, all you need is:
some scrap pieces of plastic card.
punch pliers( not sure if this is the correct name)
Then it is just plain sailing just make a lot of holes in the plastic card.
After a few holes a small rod of rivets will start fall out of the pliers.
And there you have it rivets the easy way.
I'm going to have to get myself one of these. Nice rivets ;-)
