| Those rivets look amazing Mr. Wilson. How'd you do them? |
| Mr. Willson | 07-Aug-12 23:42 |
| They were done with a sewers, I beleive it is called a pounce wheel. It looks like a small circular saw blade
attached to a handle. |

| So then do you run the wheel on the backside of the cardstock to pop out a rivet for the surface side? |
| Mr. Willson | 08-Aug-12 11:21 |
| That is right Pauli.Based on the pounce wheel technique, ou can make your own tool using any small toothed wheel/ gear etc. There are some nice examples on the net. |

| Thanks. I'll check 'em out. That rivet detail really makes a nice effect. Great job on the Liberator. |

| If you ever see a Liberator in person, you'll appreciate all these rivets even more! |

| I`m probly missing about 100 thousand rivets and several more panels but I had to stop somewhere. On my B-17 I will ad a few more. I`m just learning the process.It is a very nice effect I will say. :) |
