How to make can rivets

Such a rivet can be made not only from a can, but also from any thin metal. It can be made in haste and practically on the knee.

To demonstrate the manufacture of rivets, the master took a tree branch. I drilled a hole in it and split it into two halves.




A strip of metal is cut from a can.


Using pliers, wraps a strip around the sewing needle. It turns out a metal tube. Cuts it from the rest of the sheet.


It connects two halves of the branch and inserts a tube into the hole.


Rivets rivet on both sides.




So, in a hurry, you can fasten two parts.

Well done! It will only rust ...
Well, today, for example, I was left without a screwdriver ... Fortunately, here I have a box with the "corpses" of the power tool ... I soldered a couple of meters of ball screw 2x0.75 (there is always a coil in the pocket ... I added crocodiles to the ends (there are also usually in stock) ... by attaching it to a dead car battery
And after that:
I’m not sure that I will never have to rivet a rivet from a can ...
Yes, you won’t, you will find a simpler and better solution! yes
Here are the rivets I always have stock. There are a hundred of each diameter and many different lengths ... But, sometimes, exhaust “don't roll” ... Then I pick up the exhaust in length, tear the rod out of it, and use its “body” as a tube - I rivet it with a large diameter punch.
But ... you never know ...
For example, today, for example, I was left without a screwdriver ... I have three "shuriks" for 220, one - lithium, and two - "nickel-cadmium" ...So far, one "network" gave the children (they planned something there). The other two remained at the construction site (worked with screws. In one - a drill, in the other - a bit). The lithium and one “idle” accidentally remained in the car, which he left at work, and arrived at another ... And the last - at the cottage.)))
And now, as it happens ... I have as many SIX screwdrivers !!! ... And at hand - NOT ONE !!! And just what you need !!!
Fortunately, here I have a box with the "corpses" of a power tool. There I found a shurik with a dead battery. Dismantled it to hell (I think it is an ungrateful thing to remake it to lithium! It's easier to just buy another cheap one with a lithium battery. They are worth a penny now). I soldered a couple of meters of ШВВП 2х0.75 (there is always a coil in the zashashnik. A "consumable" cable. Often needed))). Gathered back. I added crocodiles to the ends (usually also in stock) and worked with such a miracle, connecting it to a dead car battery, which is waiting for its relatives (not only to take it to take it to colormet))). And to that I connected a charger, while fooling around with a shurik, I gave 8 amperes of current, and recharged it a bit .... (I also have the Soviet "Cascade". A strong thing! Not that the current "smart" ...)
But he did the work ... As I wrote earlier, "In the fire and x @ th - the pump!" ))))
Therefore, I’m not sure that I will never have to rivet a rivet from a can ...)))
In life, it’s like ... "Whoever wants is looking for opportunities! Whoever does not want is looking for the reason!"

So what?? Looking forward to tomorrow?
Well, it seems that you are right, but on the other hand, no rivets are needed for the “sofa master”! And you, even if the purchases are over, there will always be a piece of some soft wire, a soft screw, a carnation, etc.! Well, you will not make a rivet from a tin! nea
And if you need one ???
And ... Now I just found out that it is necessary to rivet one rivet and in this very place ... And it is because of this that everything else stands ... And already, after all, it’s evening ..
So what?? Looking forward to tomorrow?
... But tomorrow I couldn’t get off work, and was late in the evening ... Shops closed ... Wait until the day after tomorrow? )))
... Fuck you, damn ... I forgot ... The day after tomorrow my mother-in-law's birthday ... We’re going to congratulate her ... Well, okay ... I’ll buy on Saturday ..
... On Saturday in the morning we left the city ... Until Monday ...
P.S. And the week flew by ... I didn’t finish it ...
And all because, in principle, I didn’t want to quickly "take over the farm", but I stubbornly searched for purchased options ...)))

It is possible, but easier and cheaper to buy ready-made rivets and work with them. Especially if they need a few hundred.
