FOUR METHODS OF FLUSH RIVETING is a Walt Disney Studio industrial training film. It's a training film produced for Lockheed Aircraft Corp. and distributed by the National Film Board of Canada in July 1942. This was Disney’s “pilot” film to show how animation could be used effectively in training films.

This short has fallen into the public domain before the 95 year limit, that's how it should be. It's not available on Disney+. The Walt Disney Company (along with other corporations) lobbied Congress to get the U.S. copyright laws extended by 20 years, twice! Because of that, it allows published works to be under copyright for almost a century and corporations to squeeze every last ounce of profit from them even long after the profitability has past. It keeps people from enjoying art, which is the purpose of art.
