Hey guys, I'm currently working on a pair of tongs; my first pair in fact. I have looked around a bit trying to find a good guide on making rivets but none of the guides I have seen make much sense to me. Any advice on how to make rivets or what size they should be for a large pair of tongs would be appreciated.
After I get done with these tongs I will be working on a hammer which brings me to my second question. What size hole should I make for the handle of a good sized hammer. It will probably be around 3 - 5 pounds.
Thanks for any help in advance guys. -
sure will, and thanks for the warm welcome guys.

Yeah, I've thought about using a bolt but decided I would learn how to make my own rivets now instead of later if at all possible.
