I was unable to find rivets with the same low profile heads as original,
so I got some flatheads with the same head diameter as the ones I
took out and countersunk the plywood to accommodate the deeper
heads. I got them at one of the large "chain"hardware stores (OSH)
they were black Iron and easily peened on the inside. I added a
flatwasher over the rivet before peening it give a little more surface
area.
