heh t-nitro,,i had some from him last year and they are some stupid high tensile rivets,,dunno where he got them but i had to find more also,,soo i went to the fastener shop here in town,,dunno if you can find something similar in your area but,,i brought them one,, and the guys there had a good idea of the strength. i got a bag of 100 for like 33$ and they were just as hard to pop as chads,,i use a 24" sissor style rivet gun to pop them,,nothing else in my arsenal would even come close. Since then i've been using blind rivets which requires a dead blow on one side and a tip installed in my air hammer,,,those things are the gear and they look great,,anyhoo hope this helps,,I'm gonna ask chad at the sled show where he gets them thoo
Hey you can try a place called Accufast (17804367400) I think they are located in or around edmonton they sell aircraft pop rivets they should be able to help you out. Or you should bug Chad to see what he actually uses!!

Not sure what brand Chad uses, but I use the stainless/stainless Vari-Grip rivets and purchase them from Mattic Industries in Calgary - (403)219-0600
They aren't cheap, but they're the best
:beer;:beer;

If you have to order them anyways, call Chad, he'll send you some. If you bought your tunnel from him, I highly doubt he'd even charge you for them. If you have to wait anyways.....

I second that Chad sells rivets too. Got some from him myself
