These look pretty decent and I've only been able to compare by sight. Haven't had the occasion to need them yet but these will be the ones I get. I love crimping and I love riveting - is it just me?

I've just given you a thanks, because by chance when I looked on eBay a few minutes ago, I managed to win one of these that was ending in 3 mins, at just £1.24. Hopefully it will turn up, and not be lost in the post!

I was debating a smiley, but, I believed that those who know, knew!

It was a deliberate comment designed to generate this.

I am bilingual when it comes to bootlaces, where I learned about such things was in a manufacturing environment with a LARGE German influence and VERY LITTLE French influence, there were a lot of Blue Ovals around IYKWIM.
Then I actually worked for a German control systems company...

However, now I've been on my "own" for over 10 years (with a little bit before) and my local "industrial" wholesaler stocks Froggie colours, I've had to become bi-lingual!
