Where to get snaps?

[Riverkilt]

My rural WalMart, a small one, has UK sized snaps in the fabric dept along with the installation gear. They carry a variety of sizes so should have the AK size too. Shop at WalMart, support the Chinese economy...

I got a snap setting kit from Tandy Leather on line and I'm 300 miles from their nearest store.

Amazing what one accumulates wearing kilts....

My walmart has the same snaps all my other local B&M stores have... Dritz brand nickel plated and brass. Both too shiny for what I want.

I did find a website, www.snapsource.com that has a good selection of more 'fancy' and muted colors (antiqued copper, brushed steel, etc) and those will look good on casual kilts. Ordered a set of each color, figure I cna return or ebay what I dont want. The rub against that place is they ream you on shipping. $7.95 + $5 if you want is priority mail. For a package likely weighing 4 ounces.

If you wanna wait a few days til mine come in I can comment on the quality for you... let you know if they are worth it.

I got my snaps and posted a review, but made a new thread, figured it'd be better as an independant post.
