	I get all of mine mail order from McMaster-Carr.  They have a wonderful
catalog - but it weighs about 4 pounds.  Call them at (404) 346-7000 in
Atlanta or (908)329-3200 in NYC.  Shipping is reasonable, and they ship
FAST.  They do tend to be expensive... 3/16" shank by 1/2" long steel round
head rivets without washers are $4.48 per pound.

	Best wishes
