I> rings for sporran chains

**Laird_M** · 7th January 12, 02:37 AM

Anyone know where I can get some of the triangular 'rings' that are used to make sporran chains?

I've tried Tandy and ebay but can't seem to find them...

You could try http://www.usabuckles.com/plastic-buckles-1-3-s.htm

But they are unlikely to be suitable for putting anywhere near a kilt unless you want to risk snagging of the fabric

Thanks. Would prefer metal ones and as you say, these may wel snag.

Henderson - that might just work...

Joshua - D-rings I can find, triangular ones,google doesn't bring back unless I want to call ya'll for grits.

Artificer - Either I'm going blind or there aren't any triangular rings on that section...

I googled triangle strap ring and got this link
http://www.albest.com/product.asp?Fu...=Triangle+Ring

There are other links as well, that link looks to be industial purposed but maybe they will let you buy a dozen or so.

Click on the link and then look to the left and click on New Items. When that page opens, scroll down and on the bottom row there is a "Twist Strap Ring" that comes in three different sizes: 5/8 3/4 and 1 inch. I have used the one inch to make a new chain belt for myself. I just opened the last link in the chain and put the loop in it and then closed the chain link. You could also use a small "S" hook, just make sure that you close it so that it doesn't snag your kilt.
