Drilling rivets is my preferred method of removal. Here is a video of me removing the rivets in the rear of my frame. It's a heck of a lot quieter than using an air hammer and a lot faster (I've removed with with an air hammer, grinder and drilling). https://youtu.be/BXHq3jkOqTA?t=44s |

Re: Frame weight, methods for a mobile frame & powder coat
My only recommendation is a sharp set of drill bits. Start small and work your way up. I used a 1/2” bit to take most of the head of the rivet down and then chiseled what remaining head was left. You can do the same on the other side of the rivet to remove it completely. Every so often, I had s rivet that I could push out with a pinch and a hammer, but most had to be drilled on the opposite side as well.
