Members hazymat Posted June 1, 2012 Members Report Posted June 1, 2012 Hello You Americans are very lucky when it comes to finding a wide range of hardware manufacturers who sell their wares directly online and I ENVY you! Sadly, in the UK, however, I've had no such luck yet. Whilst Tandy does a really decent range of hardware for bags (I'm talking clasps, swivel clips, trigger snaps, dee rings), there are very few other places to get things. Minimum order with Tandy for D rings the size I want is £16, and a couple of brass trigger snaps will set me back £10. Not to mention flap fasteners... all in all I could spend about £40 ($60) just on hardware for ONE bag! Any UK people out there know the best way to source bag hardware? Quote

Members celticleather Posted June 2, 2012 Members Report Posted June 2, 2012 S & K in Islington (http://www.skfittings.co.uk/index.php) have just about everything you'd ever need . . . except a catalogue! They're very close to J T Batchelor, so a combined visit would be worthwhile! Quote When everyone is somebody, then no one's anybody
