Nice try, MD. While I have four bookcases full of books on art, artifacts and history, I don't seem to have any books that cover this particular topic. So, lacking a handy reference, I thought I'd try posting here to start. I feel reasonably confident that there are folks here that have done the sa...

Re: Using Brass Nails or Escuteon Pins as Rivets?

I hope I can get some advice here. I'd like to use tiny brass nails (sometimes called escuteon pins) as rivets to mount decorative belt plates and such.
