    good grief they're expensive!

    Try here http://www.thecrystalphoenix.com/ste...tubes-81-c.asp

    or here (though I know Debbie's having shop problems at the moment)

    You can also get them direct from the US, but the exchange rate doesn't really make it worth it at the moment.

    So do you still use normal crimping pliers with them...? They look quite long. Much prettier though.

    Default Bayonette clasps

    Morning All,

    I've been looking at getting some thong calottes that look similar to the bayonette clasps below, but have a lower section in the middle that you squeeze with plyers to hold the cord/leather in place?

    Any preferences ?

    For thong and other cords, I tend to use crimp ends from another supplier. I'd get them from Cooksons if they stocked them
