Wow, that's a great start! I'm looking forward to seeing that when it's complete. I like the idea of using the gear to get regular rivets. I wonder if a metal gear would be able to do a similar thing on thin styrene sheets. |

I am still toying around with it, a metal gear would certainly take the pressure better, this plastic one is bending when working on card……..come to think of it I have an old wind-up alarm clock around here somewhere, might be a decebnt source of gears! |

There's actually a tool used for getting embroidery evenly spaced, it's more or less a pizza cutter wheel with teeth on it. Just a thought. |

Excellent stuff! Thanks for the name-drop! I've used strips of rivets before – you could consider brass sheet instead of card. I get mine from tubes of tomato puree. It's nice and thin and holds its shape when 'rivetted' very nicely. Keep it coming! |

Lion and Ming is that device going to make impressions or holes? I confess a complete ignorance of all matters sewing. |

I am looking forward to the next installment. Especially if you solve the problem of rails. |

John the Greater, I am working on, and worried about, that exact matter. I think I may have a solution but need to do some prototype work before committing to the whole thing. |
