Use a 1/8" rivet for 2 flat, thin layered pieces, a 1/4" rivet for simple layered pieces and a 1/2" rivet for higher stacked layers. Stack, layer, collage... Rivet pieces of metal, leather, plastic, and more together to create a multi-dimensional pendant! TIP* You can rivet varying sized holes as long as you have a washer or a flattened bead cap. To rivet: 1. Simply punch a hole into your pieces using the 1.5mm Vintaj Hole Punch Pliers (V-PLHP15-SH). Slide the rivet through both pieces. 2. Cut excess length off the rivet end to about 1/16". 3. Lay your pieces on a hard surface, preferably a rubber block and a steel bench block (available in our tools section), with the nail head facing down and the rivet end slightly protruding. 4. Lightly tap, using a ball peen or chasing hammer, the rivet end so it spreads out slightly over the hole opening. Gradually increase the intensity of the hammer taps until both pieces are secure. Decorate metal, jewelry, paper goods, chip board, grunge board, wood, leather, acrylic, textiles, foil, canvas and more... Stamp, impress, texture, fasten, hang, link, layer, bead, string, suspend, hammer, flatten, rivet, cluster, glue, alter, ink, paint and more to create all types of projects!
