Note, if you do these make sure you are on a good solid surface, like a concrete floor. A wood table bounces to much and is much more work on the rivet. I will have to drill them out and get some "pop rivets" that I have read about. They will be much easier to get in that tight corner. I feel better now, thanks for listening. lol

Sounds like I purchased the same kit as you. I to thought about using pop rivets in mine also but I managed to use those great rivets with that one of a kind rivet tool that came with the kit
