Simply Rivets
Instructor: Tom McCarthy
Saturday, December 4, 10:00am – 4:00pm
Rivets are used to connect materials without using a torch which
makes them perfect for materials that can’t be soldered – wood, plastic,
aluminum, titanium. They can also be used if you simply don’t want
to solder or don’t have a torch. We will cover various forms of riveting
including basic, flush rivets, headed rivets, tube rivets and a relative, the
tenon. Students must have some basic metals skills. Bring your favorite
tools. This is really low tech and the ArtCenter has all of the hammers we
will need.
Materials, drills and drill bits will be available from the instructor for a $15 to $20
fee.
