[QUOTE="bulldog, post: 181921, member: 4592"] IMO - the best way for me was to rivet my aluminum build but that is because I'm not very good at welding aluminum and I do not have a welder. They hold up very well and are easy to use. The cheapest way to go about it would be to get your rivets from harbor freight. They have them pretty cheap. The cheapest I found and invest in a nice manual rivet gun. Don't buy one at Harbor freight, from my experience they are junk. Buy a decent one at Lowes or some hardware store. Buy a couple(ten) extra drill bits because you will break them. [/QUOTE]
