We have a guild snap-press available for use by members. The press is available to use at all in-person meetings and sew-ins and possibly other times, by arrangement. If you would like to use the press please email us at ottawagarmentguild@gmail.com to confirm its availability.
We have three dies and the accompanying hardware that will work for each type of die. You may use your own hardware but we can't guarantee what you bring will work with our dies. If you do use our hardware we ask for a cash payment of one twoonie per per project (use your discretion if the project is hardware-heavy). This fee will go towards expanding our die collection and replacing and expanding the hardware selection. Our selection of dies and hardware are as follows:
Ring Snaps - 15mm, 5/8 inch, 24 Ligne
finishes: brass plated, nickel plated
Jean/Tack Button - 17mm
finishes: Copper Oxide With 8 Stars
Ring Rivets - 9.5mm
finishes: nickel plated, copper plated
If you have any questions, feedback, or tool requests please let us know!
