I got one of Nick's maker stamps a couple weeks back, and it was very cleanly made and precise. Got it in under a week, also. Larry

Hi, I've noticed most holster makers mount their snaps with screws, presumably with tee nuts beneath or behind them. It seems a good idea, as it allows for snap replacement where the backing is covered, and would otherwise be inaccessible. Anyone know where to buy the components for those, and perhaps some measurements? I'm having trouble with a source and sizing. Thanks, Larry

Thanks for all the good suggestions! I'm planning to use all of them- I will add an idea my mad googling turned up, although I'm afraid I can't find the link and give proper credit to the author- Hold the workpiece upside down, and glue from the bottom-any strings or drips will fall AWAY from the leather, and the strings can usually be pulled away without getting any cement on the work. Between all these ideas, I will just have to blame myself for sloppiness if this happens again, I think! Larry

Is there a specific technique I can use to avoid getting the (seemingly) unavoidable strings and drips of Barge cement all over my work piece? I always manage to get at least one sticky, stringy blob dropped right where it will show. Is there a trick, or a better product? Thanks, Larry
