How to use KAM snap pliers

Whether you are making your own suck pads or want to learn how to use your snap pliers, this video is for you.
When I make suck pads I cut my fabric to 7"x9.5" and use a 1/4" seam allowance. Watch for my tutorial on how to sew them together.

    Thank you so much! I just bought one of these off of Amazon and the instructions were so tiny and blurred that I couldn’t see how to use it. I just made my first snap in a SNAP thanks to your video.

    Great tutorial, but I **have** to ask.... What in the world is a "suck pad"??? At first I couldn't even tell that's what you were saying because you said it so quick, so I had to read the description. But I still have no idea what a "suck pad" is.

    Hi, I hope you can help me, so basically I am trying to put some snaps onto felt (without the need to back it) do you believe that these would work? Asking as I bought myself a tool and metal snaps which didn't work and don't really want to waste my money again.

    Jimenez Jimenez , you can clip or melt the little point off, but experiment first, before​ using on your project.

    I find it easiest to use nail clippers to snip away the flat part, then you can just pull it through the hole where the snap is.

    I will sometimes prop mine up and push it against my cutting mat (on my table). That way I can use my body strength instead of relying on just my hand strength to do the job. Hopefully that helps! :)

    Mine still work, but I bought a pair of actual KAM pliers and like them more because you can switch out the fittings for different sizes and snap options.

    Your snap pieces are commonly referred to as “male” and “female” parts, and the thing that makes the hole is called an awl.

    It covers the straps of a baby carrier so that when you are baby wearing, your teething little one doesn't get your carrier gross. These are machine washable and help to protect your carrier when you are baby wearing. ;)
