If you don't have a nosepiece for the rivet gun that fits, instead
of using a hard-to-find tiny washer, try using the little piece that
screws onto the top of a sparking-plug.  It's just about perfect but
could be harder.  In doing a TR6 top you'll probably squash 2 or 3
sparking-plug-tops but we all have a zillion rolling around in our
toolboxes, right?
