AmetureHour Report post Posted February 26, 2022 Hey Everyone! I have been using the same line 20 button snaps for a few years now and have been disappointed to one degree or another every time I have used them. They are easily unbuttoned and unreliable. Do you have any suggestions on where I can find good button snaps? What do you use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toxo Report post Posted February 26, 2022 I usually find that a bit more or less weight on the right part with the hammer does the trick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) DOT, CS Osborne or Stimpson with brass "core" DOT also has a PULL THE DOT line which is much stronger that the plain ring snaps nut not very fashionable so depends on the purpose.

Ed in Tx Report post Posted March 4, 2022 A snap setting press would be a good investment. I have had no issues using LN20 or LN24 snaps when using the press. I bought the press and dies from Goldstar Tool a few years ago. I tried the setting by hand but always seemed to have problems. Being able to put on a snap with no issues made the purchase worthwhile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaxx1024 Report post Posted September 6, 2022 I always have more trouble using the small button snaps rather than the 20 or 24. Can’t figure out which piece goes with which on those small ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
