snaps: brass vs. SS

[Fish_Whisperer]

I just inspect them, every few dives. If I need to replace them, I do.

Haha. Ill take them if you ship to me for free.:11:

... until I find myself in the big city and buy a few SS ones.

I get mine here.
Most folks I know do the same.

If money is a problem, start with brass and move over to SS as funds permit. As long as you're moved over within a year, it's really no big deal. you'll be converted long before the sharp edges would start to form. While I can understand the sticker price of buying a bunch all at once, if you can't afford $6 here and there, you're in the wrong sport...

If you can't afford $6 here and there--stop going to Starbucks and Burger King so often. Use that money to buy snaps.
Problem solved.

 

[do it easy]

If price is a concern, then I would say skip the brass and just buy SS from the git go. Or find a cheaper sport.

I hear you guys loud and clear. I just dont want to order SS and wait 2 weeks for them to get here. I got some brass ones and will buy SS when I travel to the bigger cities.

And if we had Starbucks or Burger King here, we would probably have SS boltsnaps.

I feel sorry for you guys.... Marine Grade SS 916 Double enders go for about $4 where I'm at and Bolt snaps go for about half that..... the money I save buys me Burgerking and/or Starbucks.... Besides, Brass pits....and that cuts my delicate fingers......
