Hi All,
I'm workign to attach a few solar panels onto a new Aliner popup camper. Apparently the SIP's they use for the walls are not really all that structural and also not aluminum.
So my plan is to use some 8020 extruded aluminum and attach these to the side frames of the camper, which are thin (maybe 1/8") aluminum channel. I don't have access to the back of the structure so was thinking of using blind rivets. Anyone have a suggestion for a decent rivet tool? I'll probably need to put in 6 per corner so only 24 rivets total. IE don't need a fancy gun but would like something quality for both the tool and the aluminum rivets. Seems like lots of junk on amazon.
Thanks!
