Sorry to pull rank Stubz, but I think he may mean these.

 

Mike.

Or did he mean Bayco?

I do hope the rivet detail can be seen, if not well....  I know they are there.

 

You can see aluminium tape rivets in action on the BCB viaduct thread and a bit on page 5 of Andy York joins In!!!

 

Although I used a tool meant for the job to emboss, the rivets could be embossed individually with any pointed implement.

 

You can buy the self adhesive tape at DIY stores - it is meant for sealing ducting really

Thanks Andy.

I don't have a rivet embossing tool but I can try out the aluminium tape idea on the bits that will really show

I promised a photo or two.... Spams Spans with painted riveted girder tops and abutment pillar caps Spams spans.jpgspams spans 2.jpg

Do those rivets show up at normal viewing distance, if so how were they created. I have to make eight plate girders for a road overbridge for my P4 diorama and there are hundreds of rivet heads showing on the real bridge. ;-(

I have a possible need for a AA1 24 ton 6 wheel Toad, there is a Peco kit for a 7mm one, Soutwark Bridge Models do a 4mm but it is £35 which is a bit steep for model to sit on a static diorama.
