I just made my first sheath, sacrificing an old revolver holster I had for the leather. I really enjoyed making it, and it's got me wanting to do a lot more leather projects.
My Question is: I have in my head that a press would be nice to have for doing snaps, rivets, eyelets, stamps, ect. I've heard of people using Arbor Presses, but I don't understand how that works without heavy modification. I see Antique cast-iron riveters on ebay for cheap, but it seems that would just be good for rivets, not snaps and stamps. What should I be looking for?
