anyone out there use pop-rivets & washers ???<<<<

In period, the kana was attached with rawhide strips. I've seen that
used with some success, as well as braided nylon cord and (my choice)
1/4" bolts. My experience has been that the kana we use (1/4" pine  
lattice) tends to get damaged in transit, so you end up replacing slats  
periodically. Unless you're fond of drilling rivets, I wouldn't advise  
them for general use. However, if you're doing a
semi-permanent structure, they'd work great.
