Yeah I have my snap pliers jig! Now to find the projects that need the snaps. I have the purse that was posted by bev and the little bags of Sue's from so long ago. Here is my jig which is copied off the jog dailylaundry's hubby made. I am so happy my hubby had a pic of one to copy! Thank you Laura. Here is her post and my pic.

Looks great Christine! I'm still waiting on mine will have to jog his memory tomorrow..

let us know! It is fun and hubby does a great job on the snaps also!

Great Job! It is wonderful that your husband made you this super jig! I have problems with my KAM. If I squeeze it too hard then the inside part bends and I have to pry it off and start over. If I use too little pressure then the snap just snaps off. I don't feel that the Kam unit I have works properly. One needs to put only a slight pressure on the handles and it closes. This does not secure the snap. However, if I squeeze it until my hand hurts then the plastic thing is squashed flat and doesnt hold either. Wondering if the plier is defective...Probably user error.

I understand completely as I have the same problem with rivets. Do you have a way to get the jig made? and Cathy just found a snap pliers at a garage sale. If you need them for projects you have to have working tools!

well done & I am hoping hubs makes me one too!~hugs~
