You could anneal the dressmakers pins to soften them. Heat to medium red and cool slowly.

Ooh nice Gerry’s starting a stud farm.?
Great tutorial.
And here lays madness
Great Gerry Can
Those tools look great for making hex head bolt heads.
My favorite method for making rivets is using a 1/16″ paper punch on thin plasticard.
It’s kinda meditative, just sit down in front of a good movie and punch rivets as you watch. By the end of the movie you have enough for an imperial vehicle or 1/4 of an ork vehicle.
70GBP…. outch XD
worth it
For you definitely… for me… I don’t think so. not enough usage.
If you speak nice @sundancer they may start these on the OTT store? Good value for 12 euro’s.

Just got done watching this and all I could ask myself was “Why do I want to start bringing home work for my hobby? Oh, wait, I started that ventilation exhaust fan project I set aside… nevermind”. The pins are an excellent idea.
