    Sam, As promised!

    Sam, you were right, the rivet thread needed a picture of two!
    Here's the results at my first attempt at riveting on the Vigor's canopy. As the glue dots dry, they will shrink and become almost invisible until a coat of paint is applied (at least that's the theory!) and then I'm supposed to have a nice rivet line.

    That is neat. Actually, I did that once or twice - and it happened when I didn't need it! Now I know what to do with it.

      Yeah, I've had "rivets" on projects where there weren't supposed to be rivets too! Never dreamed that one day I'd be making them intentionaly.
      Last night, after they dried, they looked really nice, much better than in the pictures. I got about half the canopy done last night and hope to finish it today. Before I start that though, I have to get into the shop and complete the next step on the baby dool bed I'm making for my granddaughter.
