[QUOTE="jigngrub, post: 246291, member: 6657"] These rivets come in many different diameters and lengths. Most home centers don't carry the different diameters and lengths that we need for boat building. Your best bet to find them locally would be Fastenal or Grainger. You select these rivets by the grip range you need, for 5/8" ply and the thickness of your boat seat I selected the .626-.750 (5/8-3/4") grip. I wouldn't recommend anything less than 5/8" thickness for your application. [/QUOTE]
