When  connecting a brass ladle to a steel handle, what rivets are best to  
use
When studying the Sorber collection which contained dozens of brass,  steel 
and copper ladle and strainer bowls, all connected to steel handles,  they 
used copper, brass and iron rivets. All lasted a few hundred years.  
Personally, I always use 1/8" brass roundheads with a rivet set that maintained  
the head.
