I was wondering what it'd take to put rivets in my china. I played a Wuhan china at GC with rivets in it and it sounded amazing, so I wanna do it to my 12" china, which is a Wuhan too, then if it turns out good possibly do it to my 18".
Any help would be appreciated.

Just get that Pro-Mark sizzler thing. That way if you later decide you don't want rivets you won't have holes in your cymbals.

On Music123 its $9 before shipping. I didn't check anywhere else.
I am thinking about trying it out too.

Putting rivets in is hard work. I tried it on 2 wuhans before getting it right.
Dont get the sizzler, just go to a hardware store, buy a 3 ft long pull cord (like the ones that are on a fan/light) and poke a hole in a felt, and the run the cord through it. I did it once and it works perfectly. Besides, it serves the same purpose as rivets and the sizzler, but its only 3 bucks.

OR just by a cord of a plug, as they have a hole on the end already.
