That was REALLY helpful - I am just starting to think about rivets and you're right - I've just been overwhelmed.
I’m glad you found it helpful!
Thank you for sharing your tips with the rivets. I have had several failures because I was using the wrong rivet size where the rivet bends over to one side and sits skew and off center.
I find if a rivet is hard to remove, say I need to remove and old rivet to repair a strap or replace the metal loops and hardware, then I use two methods.
First method is I use a hand drill to drill the rivet out from one side and remove the rivet with pliers.
The second method is to get a pair of wire cutters or larger removal nail pliers (the plier you use to lever and remove nails from timber). Use the pliers under the head of the rivet. Clip the head off the rivet and remove the remaining rivet stem that way. Cheers.
Thank you for the video!! So much information. Would you be willing to do a video on snaps? That would also be helpful.
I had purchased a rivet press a couple years ago from Amazon. The store is no longer in business and i can't find the dies to fit. So for Christmas this year my husband bought me a rivet press bundle from kamsnaps. Under ever video Jess oklaroots puts out, she has a link to the bundle with a 15% off coupon. So if anyone wants different kinds of dies such as the rivet die, magnetic snaps, plastic snaps, key fob die, metal snaps die, etc it's sooooo worth it! I use every one of them that comes in the bundle!
Thank you Nicole for this video on the rivet sizes... That was super helpful
Great coupon code, thanks for sharing!
I just got my press from Kamsnaps today and I’m happy I bought the Oklaroots bundle. I am hoping that it was worth it to purchase your review has eased my nerves. Thanks!
Great job describing all parts of riveting and tools needed.
Glad it was helpful!
you are so much fun to watch!! thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Thanks so much for all the information on Rivets. I didn't know what was needed & how to go about putting rivets on, but you have filled me in perfectly.
I'm really a sewer & make t-shirts and I've seen that they put small rivets on neckband now, and they look great. Thanks again.
Pauline 😊
No problem!
Thanks so much .I was wondering why I was getting dimpling in my rivets now I know this was a great tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Thankyou . Very informative. And easy to understand. Im a newbee.
Glad it was helpful!
I just found you....looking for more info to put rivets on a cotton bag I am making. Really appreciate all the information; you are a great teacher!
You are so welcome!
Talking about rivets...your channel name....your hair! That's it I'm subbing!
Welcome aboard!
I have started working in latex garments and harnesses and found the world of rivets so so confusing. So glad I found your video here it has helped me immensely. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, such a useful tutorial. You have explained everything so clearly and in a way I understand.

Chicago Screws. You can get them with 1/8” opening. I prefer the open back ones, they will tighten up more. You can add a drop of Elmers glue or blue loctite to keep from loosing, just don’t use red loctite if you ever won’t to remove it. Good video. If you can’t find 1/8” try ordering from Tandy Leather.
Wow - so much great info on rivets! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video! It came out at a most opportune moment. I have been on the fence about buying a press mainly because of the confusion about all the dies. This helped tremendously. Thank you again!
So glad it was helpful for you!
So very helpful! Thank you! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
This was a great video. Just getting into rivets. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I'm pretty new to bag making and I love the cork fabric. You are the only one I see on UA-cam that only sews with cork and I like that. I have learned a lot from you. I really enjoyed this info on rivets.
Awesome! Thank you!
Another great video. Thank you. I love my rivet press from Kam Snaps. This company works great for me because quick shipping and lots of help if needed.
Great to hear!
Thank you. You have been sooo helpful. I have the gold star press but had set it aside. Will try it again.
Have fun!
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful.
You're welcome!
This was helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
okay, i been peeking at rivets, and i want to use them to step up my tote bag making. i am very interested in this! great video sweetie! i like this! TO THE AMAZON! GOO!!! LOL!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you - very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for your straightforward approach and opinion on sourcing rivets and hardware. I price shop and use many resources also and for the most part been completely satisfied. Some projects just don’t require high end, expensive hardware.
Really enjoy your videos 😊
Glad you enjoy my channel!
Thanks so much! I am kind of new to bag making, have mostly used cottons but have a 2nd machine that I got for sewing marine vinyl and heavy canvas for my boat so it will definitely do cork and faux leathers, etc. So, I do want to get into rivets. I have the Kamsnap press already for plastic snaps - I got the press that can also take all the other dies but have been hesitant because it seems like you need so MANY die sets. I am going to follow your example and try working with just one larger size of die. Really good explanation on everything, very helpful! Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much! I’ve wanted to do rivets for years. Excellent tutorial!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I like the tip about numbering the snap pieces and dies ❤ thanks.
No problem!
Very helpful, Nicole. For rivet removal I use a pair of medium wire cutters. The sharp edges with bevel go under the set rivet pretty easily and the medium cutters give good leverage to cut the post.
FYI, UA-cam pushed a minimum of 12 commercials at me while trying to watch your video. Very aggressive move to try to force paid subscriptions, which I refuse to give in to. But they are making watching your videos pretty frustrating, especially the ones you cannot click skip on.
I also have good luck removing with wire cutters. I wonder why your getting commercials. I never get any ads/commercials when watching Nicole’s videos…
I use the Adblock Plus for youtube - it's a free extension...I never get ads.
So strange about the commercials, I’m not sure why they’re showing you more!
I use AdBlockPro (free) app. Works perfectly - but not on their app on a phone.
Thank you for your video. Yours was the first video I’ve found clear and useful. Unfortunately living in Australia I’ve found it difficult to find where to purchase the dies for snaps to fit the bench press. I have always used the hand held for my purses and bags and recently purchased the bench one on line.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks,great information
Glad it was helpful!
Great topic, thanks for sharing it 👍
Thanks for watching!
@@SewGnar glad to hear you 🙂
When I have a hard to get punch, I use a Japanese hole punch. Im always confused over ordering rivets. They usually say 8mm, for ex. I always took that for cap. But I have 2 different 8mm with different posts sizes. But the post size isn’t given. But what you’ve had to say was a big help to me.
Glad it was helpful!
Great vlog thank you! I am just venturing into the world of snaps, rivets and eyelets etc as an alternative to buttons in my dressmaking. This was really helpful as there is sooooo much to learn. Ruth x
Glad it was helpful!
Nice and informative. But I just came here to say love your nail color, givin me all the fall vibes!
Oh thank you!
Excellent!!
Many thanks!
This was perfect, answered my issues with rivets. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thank you for the tutorial! I just got my rivot press today! And your tutorial was a wealth of information! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I have to tell you! I made your Tall wallet! Now I am sorry but I didn't buy the pattern. I just had to try it and at the time I didn't have the money to buy it. I have made 3 of them so far. Out of faux leather, and canvas . Not a good combo for this wallet. My last one I made from all cork! And it isn't perfect! But it is really nice! The problem I had is with the timing. The rest is fine! I did buy the Triskele pattern. I am sitting trying to figure it out.
Anyway I just wanted to say that I watch your tutorials whenever I can. You are a really great teacher! And I want to thank you!
@@rosenuhfer1706if you didn’t buy the pattern how did you make the tall wallet? And what do you mean you had a problem with the timing?
Thank you
You're welcome
That was very informative. Lots of helpful information. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Nicole , another awesome tutorial
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for this information! I am designing a bag and needed to know more about rivets and using the woven strap that you demonstrated!
Glad it was helpful!
Ah-I was so confused at about 39.75 minutes when I thought you said “and you can hear it snap incorrectly” when what you really said (and meant) was “you can hear it snap in…correctly”. Ah, when you can see the bright light of clarity 😎 Great video. Thanks for not falling prey to fill-in banter which can take up a huge amt of unnecessary time. And thanks for your large and descriptive vocabulary. Cork on!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video! It turned out great. I learned something new which is always a plus.
Great to hear!
Excellent video! I have made bags but never used rivets. When I decided I needed to learn how to make custom jeans, that is where I first experimented with rivets. Some turned out good and some didn’t. I really struggle with the jeans style nipple rivets installation as well as where to source more. Thanks again for the education. ❤
No problem!
This was perfect. I have that same press because my daughter had it and gave it to me and I wasn’t sure if I could use the same die for multiple sizes of rivets. I didn’t know you could also interchange the top and bottom rivet size. I have a nine die have as well, and this clears a lot up. I haven’t found any tutorials that explain this. how the dies/rivets work like on this particular press, gold star has good tutorials but not really the application. thank you !
No problem!
I just rewatched this and it makes even more sense to me and I learned more since I’ve made more things I can use rivets on. Thanks again!
Thank you very much..lots of info!😂
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks! Perfect timing for me.
Awesome!!
Great video - I learned lots. Thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for a great and direct video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great information! I have a press ftom Gold Star and their custom service has been great!
Great to hear!
Oh boy, I really need this! Thanks
Happy to help!
Awesome. Thank you for the very informative video.
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative video Nichole.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so so much for this video.
You are so welcome!
Really good explanation! How many post lengths do you have on hand. The first strap you showed was thick whereas the cork is thin…?
I usually just always have the sizes that I show in the video!
You explained it perfectly 🎉
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the info. So helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial😊
Thank you! 😊
Omg I love your bags out of all the bags I’ve seen on so many other tutorials you do amazing work, thank you for this tutorial because I’m just beginning bags and rivets I’m unsure about but I have the cam shaft I need to get more dyes where do I get those? If you can tell me how or the link if possible I’d greatly appreciate it and I’ll check your page out for where you sell because I seriously love the bags you make my style! ❤
I dont use a cam press but I’d assume you can Google it and find a site that sells them?
Good stuff! Thank you!!
You bet!
Extremely helpful. One question: When you are pressing on the big press does it matter if the cap you snapped on or the post side is up or down?
Nope!
Thanks so much for this. What is the bag pattern for the prickly pear bag you held up at the start? That bag is seriously cool!!!
That is the Cami Crossbody by Georgia Girl Stitches!
@@SewGnar Thanks for your reply. Are you able to tell me how much of each of the 3 cork fabrics I would need to order for the Cami. I have asked Joy and she told me to contact you as she doesn't work with cork. I would make the straps and crossbody one from one of the fabrics. Thanks so much!
@@stephparkes100 For an example and because I know fabric funhouse measurements, you’d need an XS of your front pocket print, and to be safe two large sizes to ensure you have enough (and surely you’ll have leftover as well)
@@SewGnar Thanks so much for your faster than lightning reply! :)
Where do you purchase the d ring and brass strap connectors? What are they called? Never mind I found that you sell them. Thanks for great videos!
Hi, My name is Gayle and I've been watching your UA-cam/tutorial on rivits. I am curious about the press. I have presses I believe are for grommets. I also make corsets. Will rivit dies still work in this press?? Thank you so much. I'm really confused.
As long as you buy rivet dies that fit your press you’ll be able to install rivets. I suggest emailing the maker of your press and asking them for help since each company uses different die sets.
Any thoughts about the hand held presses?
Not specifically, I like mine from goldstar!
Ohh crap I see a loud the dyes I ordered mine from Amazon
Do they fit your press?
Thank you, so helpful!
You're welcome!
