nigelpugh Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I finally got around to buying one of these excellent tools to help with my build. I have added it to my Blog, but so many people on Facebook were asking for details about it, I thought it might help to provide more information about it here.Its called the Prees-N-Snap fastener tool, and is made by a US company called Hoover.I bought mine on line from a company called Sailrite, here's a link to their website.http://www.sailrite.com/#And here is an picture of the actual tool.

OliverSedlacek Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I saw that on facebook and I have to agree, it looks so much better than anything that involves a hammer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cr500dom Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I can Confirm after borrowing ScottR400`s one that it is a fantastic tool, I cant imagine trying to fit that many snaps accurately with the hammer and punch method Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ. Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Nice tool, I didn't fancy hammering them either. Bit pricey for me, so I welded the Caterham tool parts into a G clamp. It works quite well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
