    According to the Genesis video there was NO indication that you need a rivet gun. So unless you have 6 1/2 inch holes in your sheet metal with no way of filling it in, please refrain from saying that I shouldn’t be frustrated. Thanks.

    if you have a cold chisel with a wide tip you could use that to tap it in a circular motion, just don't do too much on one particular tooth or you could sheer them off

    I used the “belt” method of constant tension on the outside of the flange while slowly pulling on the belt and pushing the tabs in as I went. Solo.
