Through holes - double side

Not open for further replies.
I'm short of ideas today.

Do you know how to make (at home) something similar to those beautiful plated vias for double sided pcb's?

I can make my own two sided pcb's but when caps (or other components) are to be soldered, you can't solder on top. No problem with the resistors tough.
 
Raka,
There are suitable very small brass rivet caseings one can press thru the hole and solder to the board. Not really necessary to use both halves as the length provides a flange on one side to solder the component. Found them at my local hardware store.

They are called wide rol eyelets. And there is a staking tool set below them. It helps to press them onto the PCB evenly.

Those rivets might be a good item for DIY tube socket on a PCB. No more hunting around for 7 and 9 pin miniatures, novars and octals (to say the least of Nuvistors!).
