Okay, that makes sense now.  I guess my experience with cheap pop rivets and
cheap pop rivet guns (where I have seen more than one of the center pins
fall out after the rivet was in place)  gives me a different impression of
the use of pop rivets.  But with the hose over the rivets no problem.
Sorry for wasting band width but I was having trouble visualizing what was
being talked about, I've only dealt with the pesky inserts once and that
some years ago.
