My new boom should be here tomorrow but i need to transfer a few bits from the old one. Question is which rivets to use and best place to get them?

Unless you spec some alu alloy rivets (aircraft style) ordinary alu ones may be a bit weak for high-shear applications. So, typically, Monel rivets are a safe bet

and other places.
Have you got some Duralac paste as well ?

Cheers, got jointing compound. Next problem is all the bolted on bits are really siezed!!! As soon as they come off i can sort out grip range.
