Hey Everyone! I have been using the same line 20 button snaps for a few years now and have been disappointed to one degree or another every time I have used them. They are easily unbuttoned and unreliable. Do you have any suggestions on where I can find good button snaps? What do you use?

I’m looking for a strap cutter tool but I would like to get one where the blades are easily available. Or at least where I have some options. I know many of you have recommended the Tandy strap cutter (wooden block) but in searching for the blades online, the only place I find them is at Tandy. Nothing wrong with Tandy, I just want to be able to source replacements quickly. Are there other blade options for that tool? Part number? Ive also seen other wooden block style cutters that use SDI style blades. These blades are easily available but curious if anyone has used one of these?

Are Goldstar grommets differently sized than other grommets? I'm completely baffled by what I'm finding. I have a bunch of size 00 (3/16") grommets from two different sellers; the measurements are: Eyelet: 3/16" (4.75mm) Outside Width: 7/16" (11mm) (like these grommets from The Buckle Guy) I recently decided to buy a goldstar press and the 3/16" die setter in order to stop hammering. None of my 00 grommets fit inside their press, and according to their website a 00 grommet has an outer diameter of 9mm. Are they making nonstandard grommet sizing? I really can't figure out what's going on.

Hi. Are 4mm eyelets available without nicks? I make simple leather boots and use 4mm eyelets with nicks from Abbey England. Unfortunately, the nicked edges scuff the tongue of the boots. Thanks. Scott

I bought a used rivet foot press, and this attachment came with the other dies. Can someone tell me the name so I may do a better search on how to use, or how this shape helps? Thanks,

I found a large lot of the Ligne/line 20 Segma birdcage snaps. The caps are approx. 1/2" in diameter. Line/ligne 16 snaps are approx. 3/8" I put a few pics of the size. They fit the older Case & Western knife sheath retaining straps I will have some for sale once I get it together. Not sure how to list them for sale on this sight but I probably will list them on ebay in the next week or so.. I am new to this site so if anyone knows how people can get ahold of me on this sight, please let me know. Thanks, Tom,
