    Cold metal processes include breaking, fastening, drilling, threading and riveting. Breaking involves bending flat metal into 3D shapes using hand or machine methods. Fastening includes drilling holes and then bolting, tapping threads or riveting. Drilling requires selecting the correct drill size and clamping/drilling the material. Tapping involves selecting the correct tap size based on threads per inch and drilling a pilot hole. Riveting can join dissimilar materials using pop rivets which are inserted and seated using a rivet gun.
