Cold Connect using Micro-Fasteners

A small selection of metal elements using micro fasteners to hold them together.  Screws, washers, nuts.  Brass, copper, aluminum, wire mesh.  Flame patina, various textures.

Photo showing a few of the tools used for micro fastener cold connect.  A few micro fasteners shown by the brush.  When I'm working the tools aren't that neatly placed!

  1. Hi John, Just found your blog. I am looking forward to following your journey. I am fascinated by all of your cold connections as I have ventured into riveting. I saw your post on JL and it great to see the pieces close up.

  2. Thanks for visiting, Christine. I am in the process of making up tutorial for JL. Hope to publish in a couple of weeks, maybe longer. I work so slow.
