Re: What do you prefer when connecting to pieces of metal together?(Poll)

I think it all depends on the situation. If you are assembling pieces of metal where nuts, bolts, cap screws, etc. CAN be used, then by all means use them. If the metal is a bit more intricate, then use welding. This all my POV, but it all depends.

(the only time I have seen riveting, however, is when we put the tread on the wheels. ONLY time.)
