Prym Parallel Spring Snaps Ligne 4 and Ligne 2

[esantoro]

Has anyone here ever used the ligne/line 4 and 2 German Prym Parallel spring snaps from OTB? I have the 10mm glove snaps and the setter from Tandy and was wondering if this setter would also be appropriate for the Prym Line 2 snaps,or must I get the setters from OTB? I've usually been disappointed with setters of all kind from OTB.

By the way, what's the history behind the "ligne" rather than "line" nomenclature?

Thanks,

Ed

Ed..."Ligne".........only time i have came across it is in the Hat Trade. linge is a french measurement used to measure width of ribbons that go on dress hats.
