Bridge at South Wayside

If you're using a pounce wheel to make rivets, especially in styrene, work with sheet material rather than strip. The wheel will deform strip as it displaces the material somewhat. If you use a sheet, work along a suitable straightedge, then cut out strips of riveted material as required. Also, for varying rivet types and sizes, vary the material upon which you work. Glass works well as a hard surface, and adding varying thicknesses of paper will alter the shape and appearance of the rivets. Different types of wood can be used as a work surface, too, but avoid wood with a very pronounced grain.
