Hey all I'm looking at some 1 way snaps to use on my holsters. I've never pieced together snaps so I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing until I get it all in my hands and I'd appreciate any guidance you might have.
I think the plan for now is to put the cap through 1 thickness of 7/8 and the stud will be on either 1 or 2 thicknesses, probably two.
Right now I'm thinking I'll get:

socket http://www.smartcart.com/scovill/cgi/displ...92-XX-18201--1C
cap http://www.smartcart.com/scovill/cgi/displ...92-XE-18100-A1B
post http://www.smartcart.com/scovill/cgi/displ...93-BS-10412--1C
Does that look like I should be good? Would the .240 or .290 post be the better choice?
I've seen some guys use things like this http://www.microfasteners.com/catalog/products/NUTBN.cfm and a screw instead of posts too, why do they do that?
Am I going to have any problems setting 1 way snaps with a basic tool set like this http://www.eleatherworks.com/product.php?p...31&cat=0&page=2
Thanks and sorry for all the links!
