I found this video and think it might work. I've got the componets in the shop, so (eventualy) I'm going to give it a try.

Looks like a great tool. Rivets are nice, but you always have to drill them out if you have to remove a part. Sheet metal screws are OK, but if you remove them and re-install them a few times, the threads in the material tend to strip, especially if it's thin.

A threaded insert, such as a rivet nut, is the answer to both problems. Out of all the tools and gadgets I have, the rivet nut tool and components, are not on that list. But I intend to rectify that problem soon!
