I was camping in a rental camper a few months ago, and it had a very simple (and cheap) arrangement for window shades. Big pieces of canvas snapped on at the top of the windows that would roll down and then get snapped onto the vehicle at the bottom of the window, the snap arrangement was probably put into the canvas with some kind of industrial hole-punch-type device and screwed into the van with self tapping screws. Broomstick in the bottom hem to keep things neat. Realized I have no idea how to create those snaps, they could be super useful for all sorts of applications. Anyone know what it is I need, or where to get it? :blush:
ETA: I see Amazon has something called a Dritz heavy duty snap fastener, but a lot of the reviews are not at all positive. Anyone have another device or method that actually works well? I won't say money is no object, but I'd rather pay $50 for a tool that works well than $15 for one that breaks after three tries.
