Re: Riveting up a frame

That actually is a good idea in the beginning, however, from personal experience rivets break easily especially under strain, also if you use rivets you have to use washers to allow the rivet to grab and hold the metal together. Once again they are very weak and in a match if someone hits you your frame might break apart.
