That's a John Deere riding in fine style. :beer:

I didn't realize that Stanley makes the rivets, and that the name Pop-Rivet is their product trademark. Thanks for that lesson, Brother Valence! [thumbzup] I do not believe that Pop-Rivets feature a tapered shaft: - the shaft diameter is constant, and the anchoring effect comes from pulling...

The deal is no-cost and rent free, right?

God bless her, and hold her in His Hands. Prayers here continue for her strong recovery.

When it looks like nothing to lose, and everything to gain: - The Leap of Faith Go for it, Brother!
