Old model rivets

[speelwerkParticipant @speelwerk]

Are these old model hollow brass rivets still available somewhere, they have a shank diameter of 3.3 mm. They are for a 1930’s Zilotone, I have made them in the past but it would be more practical to buy them. Niko.

If you search for "eyelets" you should find plenty such as these

Wear clogs or sabots there's no eyelets on them.

Camping shops, go outdoors, etc supply them in kits with the dollies to close them.

Got some in the workshop, left overs from my Grandfathers leather factory in Dunedin NZ, so they could be up to120 years old. I think theres black, blue, brown, and plain brass. There are some aluminium ones from electrical gear, the same size as the ones in your photo.
