Hi all,
I tried to do this yesterday but the post was never published. Hope it makes it this time.
In any case, I am looking for oval 18-19mm eyelet for a leather racket case. A carrying handle goes through this eyelet.
Now, as far as I am aware there two types of eyelets. One with screws and one that is stamped using a special tool. I have tried unsuccessfully to find one with screws but failed so I have used the stamped one. It looks great on the outside, but inside it looks rough/ugly with sharp edges. Also, the depth is only 4-5mm and I have to cut out reinforcement to make it buckle properly, which creates a dip on the surface. Is there an 18mm screw eye let that has narrow sides similar to the pic? Maybe there are deeper (7-8mm) stamped ones? I would appreciate any sort of ideas or recommendations that could work in the case.
Thanks a bunch in advance!
