John,
You were on the right track with the Pop-Rivet idea. There is a
product called Riv-Nut and various other names that is essentially a
blind rivet with threads. You use your rivet tool to install it and
end up with machine threads in sheet metal. I think they range in
size from 4-40 up to 3/8-16. Cooler than Hollywood.
