What can I use besides nuts and bolts to make this tin man?

I used wire to attach legs to body and nuts and bolts in all others. It was a chore! Any suggestions would be appreciated!
How about trying E-6000 glue? It says it works on metal! It should hold-up well outside,too. There is also the option of welding. Would be a neat skill to add to your bag of tricks! Have fun!
Use an outdoor epoxy glue.
Have you considered pop rivets?
He is adorable. I was going to suggest zip ties, but that would be just as bad as the wire you used. I like the glue suggestion.
Thanks for the suggestion. the two I have made so far hang outside...one in a tree and the other on a porchMother's Day gifts👍) so no sur how the glue would hold up. Gorilla glue maybe?
outdoor epoxy glue, or E6000.
E6000 holds up well in outdoor weather including what we get in the Midwest.
