Different technology, same basic idea.

That kind of rivet is a rod with a domed, flat end like a bolt or screw. It sorta looks like (== , you push it through a hole in the two or more pieces and use an impact hammer to squash the end of the rivet into the pieces you're attaching. (==)

Riveting...in a non-sarcastic way

Riveting.

What an utterly sweet video. The cat on my lap and I thoroughly enjoyed it. [he was positively riveted].

You should read about Ian Thompsons ordeal. Riveting stuff. Imagine you are 21 minutes away from a police response you call them while 4 guys throw molotovs onto your house and dog kennel. You go and get a pistol, run out (even though they could be heard saying you're gona die) and shoot OVER their heads. Not to kill them but scare them away.

You get charged, 10's of thousands of legal costs, only to be aquited in the end. The 4 guys who firebombed his house barely got any time in jail for attemped murder.

It's obscene.

Fantastic storytelling, dag. I'm riveted and can't wait to read the next installment.

Horrifically riveting =o0

Absolutely riveting.
