fuumantroop[TK] Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Does it really matter what color snaps you use for the interior assembly? Ive found black snaps that are $3 more than plain nickel snaps, thats why i ask... Im currently looking at the tandy snaps as ive heard too many horror stories about the drtiz snaps.. Thanks!

Dday[501st] Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Color doesn't matter unless you are going for screen accurate interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuumantroop[TK] Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Im going more for troopably functional and comfortable and attempting to get EIB/Centurion eventually without having to redo my entire set up lol. Still waiting on my armor, im just trying to get everything needed for the assembly taken care of before it gets here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Batman[501st] Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I went through 2 suppliers of snaps (and about $60-) before going to Tandy snaps. These work great now. I just picked the cheaper silver ones, but what're ever colour or design you want - they're not seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I've used many different coloured snaps, all have worked fine, just try to keep glue away from the metal when gluing the snap plates, some metal snaps can react with glues and get quite hot and can melt ABS.

fuumantroop[TK] Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Thanks for the input everyone! I didn't think it would matter, but just wanted reassurance. Ill be ordering my tandy snaps tonight! Along with the snap setting kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
