If you use a combanation of pop rivet and appoxy,
it will hold forever no matter what,
1st drill a small hole to get your rivets throught, then....
put the appoxy on, then right away do up the pop rivets,
it helps if you use clamps and vice grips just to line everything nice and cleanly,
then if you want the core look, put a layer of duck tape for style.....
