Given that African Blackwood (which I think you said it was?) is very hard, is there not a danger of it splitting when you 'tighten' the rivets?

Its looking great.........would be gutting, if the scale splits! 😢

hear what you say..........if you put 2 surfaces together....it dosnt make any differeance if they are together with a tonne pressure or just 2lbs...together is together.........im a real saddo....im facinated by rivets...follow just a few very simple rules...2 of which are 1....dont make the rivets too long...2....dome the heads...............

riverts are like Gabion baskets in civil engineering...on paper they shouldnt be strong enough...but in practice they are way in excess of the strenght required............did you know on the american 30cal and 50cal machine gun the reciever boxes are riveted together ?.........

i just like riverts...nice and tidy ...does the job...

i was speaking to Jack the gripper last week......he said he had been trying out new positions of passionate lovemaking with fat sarah.............so i asked him what was his latest try out............he said it was totally unplanned and unexpected...........and called it his " i love the smell of napalm in the morning" position

how so i said...........well its like this....you know sarah likes her fags......and she is always worried about not being able to light up......well....she carries a tin of lighter fuel around in her back pocket...to fill the old Ronson up with..........weelllll...the damn thing must have split the can and the stuff leaked down the crack of her bottom....and as she was a' backin' up to the bed in the dark...it caught the backs of her legs on the courner and sat on my face...............hence the phrase "i love the smell of napalm in the morning".......

Imagine if you’d flicked a fag end in there, be the flaming crevasse of Norfolk. You could have lost your Barnet.
