Rivets or screws

[Socks]

Hey guys, Iv just gutted my old case and done a respray, the only thing i need to do is to rivet it back together, or screw it, either way i dont mind,

Anyways, anyone got any suggestions of what is the best ones to buy or what to look out for when getting these sort of components.

Iv heard about self tapping screws but wasnt too sure what ones to get.

Cheers guys.

personally, i'd go for rivets, just get urself a cheapy rivet gun from ebay, then get some rivets from said supplier.

Easier, Quicker...just a bit of a bish if you decide u wanna reverse the process lol.

Me personally (as i've been talking to you in regards to this), am probably going to rivet my acrylic window to my case, but i've gotta do a test first to see if it would actually crack the acrylic.

knowing my luck however, the acrylic test would be fine, however when it came to the real thing, the acrylic would actually crack lol.

Alternatevely, you could use self tapping screws with a countersunk part of the case. Should look lush if done properly with a proper countersinking bit. You could even spray it after to blend it into the case.
