I heated some up and drove them in. I bought some 3/8" x 3/4" from JC Rivet a while back to use on attaching my hood latch brackets to the firewall on my Carryall. These were two test ones I drive through some 3/16" to 16 gauge. The back were just mushroomed and not domed though. One day I want to build a calibrated hydraulic squeeze for building industrial type furniture and stuff. There doesn't seem to be anyone in my area that does heavy solid rivet work so I think the vintage crowd, frame restoration, etc guys would come to me.
