[QUOTE="who pooted?, post: 82682, member: 940"] Thanks guys. What is a molly or oscar rivet? On the bases you two suggested ss bolts and nylock nuts. Where would I use these? I have to rivet the angle to the ribs on my boat. I'd be worried about drilling through the ribs and attaching bolts/nuts. I'm afraid with movement the holes through the ribs connecting to the angle would get bigger. If I get this right I need to: Use 3/16 pop rivets to attach framing Use 1/8 pop rivets to attach sheet of alum to deck And use ss bolts and nylock nuts for the bases- [color=#00BFBF]I assume you mean the pedastal bases.[/color] [/QUOTE]
