Along with the material used to construct a container that I own,
which many helpful chaps on this group have already assisted me with,
I'm trying to source some pins/rivets and related tools similar to
these:

I've trawled around looking for something similar and I've found
plenty of pop rivets that will achieve the desired result however, I
need something with the same flush style (no hole through the rivet),
and they need to be brass, steel or another material that can be given
an authentic/depreciated finish. So far the most usable thing I've
encountered are furniture pins but these aren't really suitable for my
project. Can anyone suggest where I might find such a product or at
least what I should be looking for aside from rivets?
