Keeping it riveted

Hello, I recently picked up a B code brownie and it is missing one daisy wheel. I will be ordering replacements, but would like to keep it as original as possible.

Has anyone pop-riveted a lower vent back on? If so, size?

Thanks for the help!

I can't find the thread right now, but someone on here found the tool and was able to replicate the Weber rivets pretty closely.  The rivets are called semi-tubular rivet and work differently then a pop rivet.  Hopefully that's a good enough start to let you track down more info. Good luck and let us know what you find.

Neil, you are correct in your description, semi tubular is it
