Alan Munden Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Any ideas for a cheap source or a cheap way of making dummy rivet heads?I need a lot abot 1½"" diameter.CheersGerryfind a paint pallette with round dimples art shops have themthey are usually about 8" round overall with about 8 1.5" round dimples then cast in plaster of paris and pop em out works a treat no release required It helps if you bake them dry you can then stick them with gripfill they take paint a treat.Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
