screws vs rivets
a neighbor sugested aluminum rivets over ss.screws.. do u have a preference? alum is more compatible with the mast., rivets less likely ot work loose.. i wonder about the strenght tho.. i see many two part masts appear to be riveted. i took some photos, grinded off the lip formed, feel like am ready to fabricate a doubler n bushing..now to find a piece of spar aluminum... thanks much for yr words of wisdom..
