Whilst leather straps and buckles are nice it they can be awkward with fat cold fingers so decided to fit some metal eyelets to a new bimble/EDC bag. Found the eyelets then turned shed upside down to no avail looking for the special pliers. Only wanted to do six holes so buying another new set of pliers for £7 triggered Mr Sweary. In the end resorted to using a metal tent peg & dead biro to flare the back with brute force trauma provided by various heavy objects. Job eventually well done I went to hang the bag from one of the nails in the back of door, that's when I found the pliers:rant:

That's made me chuckle no end!
Glad it's sorted, and improved I'd argue?
Sounds like similar experiences of mine!

Riveting stuff.
