Need some schooling for the tool/tools to make snap on buttons. Not much info on youtube for the snap on style buttons, just the type that has a loop to put string through for furniture and pillows. I didn't see any tools/dies for this on Albrights web site.

The biggest name for this will be the pres-n-snap tool. Without getting into the pneumatic tooling production companies will use. It’s been a while since I looked at Albright but I thought they sold this tool. Come with different dies for different sizes and looks a bit like a c clamp vise grip, but better. Here’s an example.

Looks nice, I think my biggest issue would be the die size in relation to the button and the snap it goes on.

I need the snap that a #6 screw goes into to put into a side panel to mount it to the boat. I imagine I can buy a bunch of the wrong stuff.

Press - N- snap is the best! I love mine. You can buy many different size dies. super easy to use.

Just for discussion I am going to post pictures of snaps that I need to put back in the new material for a project I just started.
Pictures coming soon.

I do NOT own a Press-N-Snap or Q Snap or any snap button thing at all. These are my fasteners for my project I am on and need to buy the proper equipment and fasteners.

Does anybody recognize the fasteners and if so what tool are you using for these?
