    Question Sourcing cap rivets in UK

    In line with my other threads about making sporrans, I'm trying to source some 4mm / 3/16th 2 piece rivets.

    Can't find any in UK e-bay or Amazon, Tandy don't do them either, so anyone got any suppliers?

    They have some nice stuff but might be cheaper if I can find them here rather than Canada...

    Thanks Chas.
    Guess I was too specific with my search string on there.
