Thanks all!

The rivits for the fittings were solid domed head rivits...

I used solid flat head copper rivits on the gridle plates. I peened them from the outside and there are no washers. So the flat head is on the inside. I forget where I ordered them from... I believe it was some plumbing supply company off of the internet.

I tested it pulling the leather off almost as hard as I could... Didnt budge. So it seems solid.
