    I havent used a rivet gun. I might need a crash course. This would hold the aluminum together I suppose?

    The rivet gun should be fine to use Kevin. I am not sure how long the pieces I have are. I need to go out to the garage and free them from captivity - if I can remember which corner they are in. I have plenty of them to make a rack. Call me so we can work something out for you to pick them up. I am going to be at a class in Austin Tuesday through Thursday. No plans so far for Friday or the weekend other than working on my tank.

    Yeah, it doesn't take much pactice to use the gun. You just make your hole with the drill and use the rivet gun to tighten and break the rivet. It's the best way to secure the different pieces together IMO. I built my light rack two years ago and it's still in excellent shape.
