I love using a table press, in fact I've bought two generic presses from Amazon so when adding rivets I can have one with a punch & the other with the rivet dies and when fitting metal snaps one can be set up for male half & the other the female half. Both of my presses take 8mm (M8) upper screw / 19mm base generic dies which seem to be the most popular screw/base die sizes found on the likes of Amazon/eBay/AliE. Other generic presses have a 6mm (M6) upper screw / 12mm base. Kam Snaps seem to have their own size fittings for their presses as they sell adapters to enable their dies to be used in the M6 & M8 sized presses.
I definitely love have 2 presses that I can interchange between. Definitely not a necessity to have 2 but a huge Convenience for sure . Thanks so much for watching.
Great and so very helpful. Thank you! I have the Goldstar (in red, my favorite color, I couldn’t resist that! :) and I am still learning all the ins and outs. I’ve finished a few bags with rivets, straps, etc, and now I just purchased the multi-prong pyramid studs to try. So much fun! Thanks again, and I’ll be subscribing.
Welcome Tara to the channel. i LOVE having my table press, both work great and makes putting bags together a little smoother. Thanks so much for stopping by and watching.
I love my Gold Star press. Got it on sale for $39.00 with a 10mm double cap rivet die and love it . No problems with mine and do not see why people diss them
Thank you Sweet Lady for sharing 😊 I just found your channel today and this is the second video I have watched to learn about the press. I just received my bundled deal on my KamSnap press through Oklaroots. Had it a couple of days and decided I wanted a second press and I ordered the green one too so I can leave it set up with the hole press. Have not used either one of them yet, a little intimidating, but after watching you I feel more comfortable. My first project is going to be NCW. I have never made anything but clothes so this will be interesting. I have already watched several videos. Anyway I had to order my decovil light. I ordered it on the 4th and it just arrived today (15). I am going to look for your video on the NCW before I start. Again thanks for sharing! ❤️😊
You are so welcome Donna. How have you been enjoying it? Have you started on the NCW? there's a few sewalongs here on UA-cam. Thanks so much for watching ☺️
Nice video! I don’t have either of these and for the amount of times I’ve used wrist rivets in my jeans, I just use the manual tools. Maybe I should look at getting one though. Thanks for sharing! 🤗🥰
Probably because I make handbags with vinyl snd leather.. both do not work only for rivets.. went bought professionally made punch hole tools from leather company
Still that's interesting. I purchased these years ago because handbag makers that use different thickness of vinyl and some leathers used these all the time. Maybe it depends on the thickness and having leather tools works better. Very interesting. Thanks for the insight.
I know you said a lot of the patterns have guides, but mostly I am interested in using snaps as swaps for buttons and adding eyelets to clothes. Not really for bag making. Are there any specific resources for what is recommended for that?
Sure Ashley, just checkout the other video I referenced for using the KamSnaps for snaps, etc. ua-cam.com/video/4z9J43Kl3Oc/v-deo.html thanks for watching.
There are several places to buy them. Do you follow MoreMeKnow here on UA-cam? She has a website to purchase from, also Emmaline Bags, etc. Let me know if that is a starting help. I could list others.
Hi Nance, actually I do not sharpen them nor have they gotten dull on me. Wow, never heard of anyone needing to do that before. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
ty so much for this video... i dont think ill ever understand presses and dies.... ufg.. im going to watch this ten times...hahaha..then maybe ill get it a little.
I sent you a video in your last post comments on your Facebook for a helpful tip on your presses. Always love to pass on useful info to help a fellow sewer😉
Hi Karen, glad you enjoyed the information. Actually, I don't have to have two presses, I choose to have 2 presses, for me it's all about convenience, I love it. But like I say in the video, definitely do what's in reason. Thanks for watching.

I use my pink kamsnaps press for rivets primarily - both jeans or double capped rivets. I also use it for jeans buttons. Love having it.
Isn't it a nice table press? Love using them both. Thanks so much Christina for watching.

Thank you for using the power of a video instead of way too much talking and not enough showing!!
Thanks you and thanks for watching!
You are very talented.
Thank you for the compliment Teresa.

Thanks Myra for watching, this was a long one, but I'm glad it was helpful for you.

THANK YOU!! Have been holding off on spending the money on a press, have been using the handsets. PS..Go Cheese!!
Glad it was helpful and GO PACK GO!!!

Thank you for the video! (Love your glasses :) )
No problem, I LOVE my Kam Snap table press and thank you again for your wonderful customer service and help!! Thanks for watching.
What do I buy for purse feet? I apologize, I don't know if they are called grommets or rivets.
There are several places to buy them. Do you follow MoreMeKnow here on UA-cam? She has a website to purchase from, also Emmaline Bags, etc. Let me know if that is a starting help. I could list others.
@@SewNaturalDane Thank you! I will look them both up. Thanks again.
Do you sharpen you punch dies? Mine are so dull snd I just bought one from goldstar.. I have both like you do but the punch dies are so dull
Hi Nance, actually I do not sharpen them nor have they gotten dull on me. Wow, never heard of anyone needing to do that before. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Thank you for the detailed comparison and description of the different sized dyes and rivets.
You are so welcome! Glad you found it useful😊
ty so much for this video... i dont think ill ever understand presses and dies.... ufg.. im going to watch this ten times...hahaha..then maybe ill get it a little.

I’m in Canada, it will cost $250 by the time I get it , not counting customs If I get dinged with that
Ohhh that IS expensive. Checkout Doodabug. She's here on UA-cam and is based out if Canada. She may sell them or have a supplier.
Just found you and I think I'm in love:) you are fun!!! grabbed a hot cocoa and watching your great video ... Thank you !!

speed at 1.5 for the vid , your welcome
This is helpful. Thank you. I have the gold star press but am planning to purchase the kamsnap press for snaps.
You are so welcome and thanks so much for watching watching 😊
I find that you don’t need 2.
That's definitely true for most. However, as I said for me I LOVE having 2 for convenience. Thanks so much for watching.
I think it’s too bad that you have to have two presses just punch and set a rivet. Thank you for the info.
Hi Karen, glad you enjoyed the information. Actually, I don't have to have two presses, I choose to have 2 presses, for me it's all about convenience, I love it. But like I say in the video, definitely do what's in reason. Thanks for watching.
You use "ummmm" a lot when speaking! Break that filler habit, please!
Betty, it's bound to happen. That's the flow of a UA-camr 😉. Thanks for watching.
She's taking time to share information...and it's her channel. If how she speaks bothers you, don't watch. 😑
