[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 381878, member: 15636"] Why not use stainless steel snaps instead? Simpler, as they had them that has the male part screw into wood, with the female part peened onto the fabric. FWIW in lieu of the snap attachment kit (which I finally bought later) I put many snaps onto fabrics using the rounded head of a small upside-down ball peen hammer to form the crimp. Have also used a Steel round bearing squeezed w/ vice grips. [/QUOTE]
