I suffered thru several videos on this topic then I found this one! Jessica shows each of the 4-parts to a snap, shows where to put each one in the pliers, and shows you the finished product! Excellent! Thank you, Jessica.
they sell these kits everywhere- BUT could you please recommend the best solution for for installing snap rivets on hats- in my case for newsboy cap brims. Tool needs to be able to go through the sturdy plastic brim and the top/bottom layers of fabric obviously. I know they sell kits everywhere but I need to make sure I can comfortably be able to go through the sturdy plastic piece and fabric without too much struggle.
Hi Kathy! I believe the procedure should be the same though it might be more difficult if the leather is very thick. If that's the case you might want to use a snap set and hammer instead of these pliers. Also, if you do use pliers, make sure they will fit the snap or grommet that you need!
I am making a new boat cover. The material where the snaps go is fairly thick and the canvas fasteners I am using don't work very well. The stud is not long enough. What other options would work? Thanks
+James Snyder Great question! I don't have any experience working with thicker fabric but I found this video. The guy makes a hole before installing the snaps, then he uses this tool (which is kind of pricey but it looks like it works really well: amzn.to/23r2JTP) That could possibly help you! ruclips.net/video/Yy1AnK40B4w/видео.html Good luck!
+ODragon11 I'm honestly not entirely sure - I can't find the info that came with my pliers! There is a 'plier kit' that comes with both eyelets and snaps and has different attachments to use depending on which you want to apply. But Dritz also has a grommet plier which might be better. (Don't really know what the official difference between eyelets and grommets is? Maybe just the size.) Anyway, if you want to check them out, here is the plier kit: amzn.to/1P7aMxG And here is the grommet tool: amzn.to/1P7auH8 I hope that helps. Thanks for stopping by!
Why didn't you laminate the bracelet...since its leather...then you can wipe it down... If when before you do the pressing to add the snap on button...if instead you fold the leather then do the snap that can also help decorate and keep your braid down without braiding nor stitching....etc.

I would like to know if I can use this same procedure to replace the snap/grommet on a watch?
