Old fashioned rivets

Posted by Days Ed on July 31, 2005 at 08:36:53 from (205.188.117.66):

Does anyone know of a source for the type of rivets that were rounded on one end and got hammered on the other to secure? The kind you use for sickle sections only I need various sizes.
TSC only has sickle rivets and my local "old style" hardware doesn't have any. I need about a 3/8" head and not overly long. Also, is there a tool for saving the head on these that I don't know about. I don't want to deform the head too much when I pound the other side. My sickle bar tool works great where it can reach but a lot of places I need to rivet are not reachable. Appreciate any tips and sources.
