Grommet Replacement

04 Jun 18:

Replaced a sail grommet with a Barry King 3 pound nylon mallet, cutting block and die set. The nylon mallet has extra weight to set the grommet and not damage the die set. The cutting block pad protects the support surface and the also the die set. We used a regular grommet but a spur grommet would have been better. Tools and grommets were purchased from Sailrite.





Skipper knows her way around grommets, she has her Masters Degree in Theatre/Costume Design and has put thousands of grommets in pirate and renaissance garb. Check out her ebay store tokenchick if you need some pirate garb :)

Tip: Don't pay $84 for the mallet, sign up at Sailrite to receive weekly coupons.
