A Question If I May Options

[quintrex101]

u dont remember writing pop rivets in that post


i could of swore i just wrote rivets.. anyway haha

[Spudly]

Pop rivet, solid rivet, who cares they are still a rivet.. we might not all have your excellent terminology but they are still a rivet and your wrong jumpus

All tinny's are fully weld & those that have seats ALL have solid rivets securing them

Ive had boats that had WELDED seats, Not SOLID RIVETED Seats!!

Wa ???

Dont think so Spud

A rivet is not just a rivet

They can & are be a structural fastener but not pop rivets

Just take a wook @ the harbour bridge & how many solid rivets went into it, better still commercial aircraft they are virtually held together by solid rivets & other fasteners which I wont mention cause ewe wouldn't know wot I was on about.

Ive had boats that had WELDED seats, Not SOLID RIVETED Seats!!

Those are very few & I was refering to tinnys's in general

That tinny I scraped had welded seats BUT it also had 2mm thick side skins so as the weld had sum ting to bite into

The average tinny has only 1.2 mm skins & solid rivets are a far better option structurally

its ok jumpy, your allowed to be wrong sometimes ;)

So Not "All tinny's are fully weld & those that have seats ALL have solid rivets securing them"
