Hi Milky I'm afraid I can't answer that one but when I ring in with the order I can ask the question. What length do you want? Bob. It looks like i can't come up with a definitive answer as yet, so discount my idea. When it comes to purchase though i shall follow your lead and see if anyone wants to involve themselves in a bulk buy. Milky |

Hi Bob,
My current batch are 3/8 long but 1/2 inch may suite people better.
They are the correct ones for Bufferbeams and look great near 1/16 ones
making them appear smaller!
Thanks again.
David. not sleeping in the cold!!

Hi everybody who has ordered rivets.
The rivets are here and packaged up. I've sent a PM to everyone to get your addresses, so I can send the packages out.
Bob.

Don't forget that the rivet counters will make sure you send them exactly the correct quantity. Unhelpfully! Chris. Well I got mine today. The rivet counters would be very happy with a generous 100+. Thanks Bob for your efforts.  |

Hi Roger.
Sorry Roger. I'm annoyed that you only got them today. I posted them last week 1st Class. You should have got them around Thursday last week. Typical Royal Mail 1st Class service!!!
Bob.

Hi folks.
If there is anyone who would like some of these rivets, I have 400 left. I've had 2 people back out after ordering for them and so those rivets are now available at £5.79 per 100 plus 65p postage to you.

Dear Bob,
Yes if no one wants them as I have so many bits of T section to attach to various cabs and bunkers!
Best regards.
David.

Hello 92220, I would be interested in buying 250 rivets (300 if a round number is easier). Thanks, 4303 Hi.
Sorry I don't know your name. I've got your rivets here ready to post. I've sent you a couple of PMs but not had any replies. Perhaps you haven't seen them. PM me with your address and I can see about getting them to you.
Bob.

Just got a reply back from the rivet supplier:- If we can get an order together for 1000 rivets, the cost would be £8.19 per 100 plus postage to you. If we can get an order together for 2000 rivets, the cost comes down to £6.20 per 100 rivets. The rivets are in stock too, so minimum wait. I'm just waiting now, for the head radius to be able to get a ball bearing to make the rivet snaps. If anyone is interested, PM me. I'm aiming to place an order sometime first week in March. Bob. Hi Bob. You did a great job on your rivet procurement. I asked the same supplier for some rivets. Here is the answer: 500 quantity of 3/64" shank diameter x 5/32" long under the head length snap/round head mild steel solid rivets shape to BS641 table 1 see www.sapphireproducts.co.uk/641t1.htm@ £16.00/100 from current stock add £3.25 for 1st class postage add VAT I am going to this other supplier at £4.00/100. If I buy 1000 they are £3.30/100. John www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-64-1-19-1-20-X-315-8mm-Steel-Round-Head-Solid-Rivet-1000-pcs/331878800637?hash=item4d45849cfd:g:JQcAAOxyqUpQ8wt1 |
