Working on my belt all day. Man what a chore! I installed the chicago screws and ab snaps as you see here:
When installing the first female snap I accidentally put it in the wrong way and had to carefully pry it out and flip it over.
Next I had to put the male snaps in my ab plate. My snaps didn't come with any hammering tool and my snap tool was too short as you see:
Remembering how I accidentally put that other snap in and had to pry it out gave me a genius idea! When you clamp the snap it opens into what looks like a flower. I thought if I clamp the snap down partially with nothing between it then pry it apart, I could bend the "petals" together, pull it apart, put it in the hole I made and bend the petals back out. It was a pain, but it worked a beaut!

Also, I got the drop boxes fitted, riveted and are now gluing:
along with the rivet covers:
Whew busy day! Time to drink
