The act of joining with rivets; the act of spreading out and clinching the end, as of a rivet, by beating or pressing.

A method of joining two flat objects together by making a hole in each piece, then passing a pin with a large flat head, (composed of the same metal as the piece), through the holes. The pin is then pounded flat to secure it in place. This process was used in jewelry instead of soldering when it was not advisable to use heat or when one part was intended to swivel.
