Here is a video of boatbuilding in Norwy in 1965. They are building a small power boat called a Snekke.

Darn it...can't play it.

I just checked with the iPad and it played fine. Don't know why it's not working for you Scott.

Jim, I didn't know you moved your shop to Norway! Boy, you've aged. . . .

Thanks for posting, very interesting, especially with all the riveting involved.

Starting at 17:00, is there any way of knowing what those rivets are made from? Copper?

[Boatman53]

Most likely the rivets are copper and I use them all the time. They have a faceted four sided head shape.

I would also think they were copper because he seemed to round them over pretty easily. But they were also driving in some longer nails with considerable force that made me wonder if they were copper. I also liked the early version of the Domino tool around the 20 min mark.
