Re: Riveting for speed

I'm curious as to what style of rivets they're using and what they're using as backup material. There are rivets that can anchor in a blind hole in wood, but they deform the wood as they do so. So I don't think they're be a viable option after the third replacement or so. I can only assume they're using metal plates of some sort to actually rivet to, but it really seems like it might be more trouble than it's worth.
