Pronged Stud Tutorial: Stackable KAM Plastic Snaps by I Like Big Buttons! August 19 2020
Pronged studs enable snap stacking. They take the place of a cap and allow your item to be snapped from both sides. While typically used to make a double-sided snap, they can be daisy-chained.
They are available in as few as 25, 100, and 1000 pieces.
Here is a simple tutorial to show the versatility of Pronged Studs.
Supplies:
- Size 20 KAM Plastic Snaps (Colors of your choosing)
- Size 20 Pronged Studs
- Sheets of Colored Felt or Fabric
- Scissors
1. Plan your layered flower, insert the Snap Cap through the first layer and back it with a socket. Form the KAM plastic snap.
2. Insert a Pronged Stud through the second layer and back it with a stud. Form the Pronged Stud and Stud together using the pronged stud die into the bottom of your press, and stud die into the top of your press.
3. Insert a Pronged Stud through the third layer and back it with a socket. Form the Pronged Stud and Socket together using the pronged stud die into the bottom of your press, and socket die into the top of your press.
4. Insert the Snap Cap through the fourth layer and back it with a socket. Form the KAM plastic snap.
5. Now snap all the layers together and enjoy!
6. Tada! Below is a close up for how they stack together. Pronged studs enable snap stacking. They take the place of a cap and allow your item to be snapped from both sides. While typically used to make a double-sided snap, they can be daisy-chained infinitely.
Pronged Studs:
- Have a 5.6mm prong like standard size 20 snaps.
- Requires a DK-98 press, size 20 pronged stud die, and size 20 three piece die set OR DK-93 press, size 20 pronged stud die, and size 20 three piece die set.
- Cannot be installed with snap pliers.
- Are sold as pronged studs only. Caps, sockets, and regular studs are available separately.
A stud or socket can be installed on the other side of the pronged stud. Just insert the pronged stud die into the bottom of your press, and the socket or stud die into the top of your press.

Making a “No Sew” Leash for a Toddler Cup with KAM Snaps May 26 2016
A while back, I tackled making a Leash for a toddler cup. My toddlers love to chuck food, cups, dishes, toys, you name it they will throw it from their highchair. KAM Snaps to the rescue!
With a couple minutes and a few supplies, you can make this handy Leash and eliminate a least one thing from flying through the air.
Only 4 days left in our Professional KAM Plastic Snap Press Giveaway, don't forget to ENTER:

Supplies:
- 4-5' of Grosgrain Ribbon
- 3 KAM Snap Sets
- KAM Snap Pliers and Awl
- Lighter or Chef's Torch
Instructions:
1. Measure off a piece of Grosgrain ribbon that is long enough to wrap around both the arms of the high chair, around the cup and enough length for your child to lift the cup to their mouth comfortably. I went with 5' but 4 1/2' would have been enough.
2. The ribbon I was using was made of polyester so I used a lighter to seal the ends of the ribbon so it doesn't fray. (If you are unsure, you may want to practice on a scrap piece if this is your first time or you are unsure of the what the material is made of.)
3. To make the ends more secure and long lasting, I folded the ribbon over about 1/2" to help reinforce the ends and pushed the cap through.
4. Install the KAM Snap at each end.
5. Measure or wrap the ribbon around the arms of the highchair and install a snap where the ribbon intersects. On my highchair it was 8" but each brand will vary. Install a KAM Snap on each end about 8" (or your measurement) in from the end.
6. Install the ribbon on your highchair, put a Toddler Cup in the ribbon and pull until you have two equal lengths. Now pinch the ribbon loosely together around the cup, loose enough to allow for different cup sizes but tight enough to hold the cup well. Install a set of snaps at the point where the ribbon met.
7. Installed it should look like this.
8. Tada! Enjoy your throw-free cup zone! My toddler was suspicion of it at first but after grunting at it for while :) she happily settled into drinking from her cup and eating her snack.
Turning a Milk Jug into a Storage Container with KAM Snaps May 24 2016
Today I am recycling one of the most common items in our house. With so many kids, we are constantly going through milk and I have collected quite the stack of Milk Jugs. What to do with them all!?!
Just 6 days left in our Professional KAM Plastic Snap Press Giveaway, don't forget to ENTER:
**If we reach 3000 Entries, we will give away a Mint Press also, so share, share, share :)
If you can’t wait and want our New Coral or Mint Press, take 10% off of your Professional KAM Plastic Snap Press purchase with coupon code: SNAPLOVE
Supplies:
- 1 Milk Jug
- Scissors
- Marker
- 1 Set of KAM Snaps
- 1 KAM Snaps Plier and Awl
Instructions
1. Take a clean, rinsed, dried Milk Jug and remove all the labels and date stamps.
2. Trace the outline of the shape you want to cut. You will have one tall, full length flap and 3 half size flaps. Stay about an 1 to 1 1/2 above the bottom of the container.
3. Cut the Milk Jug on the lines. The Milk Jug will fold inward about were the dashes are, the dashes are just a visual, no extra cutting is needed.
4. Fold the front flap in, then the 2 side flaps and finally the tall flap over and down. Use your Awl to decide on the position of the snap and poke it through both the flap and the body of the jug.
5. Attach the inside KAM Snap to the body of the Milk Jug, Stud facing out. This may require a KAM tabletop Press, if you only have pliers, you may need to adjust the length of the front flap.
6. Now attach the KAM Snap to the tall flap, Socket inward, Cap on top.
7. Snap and Go!!! You can use this container to store sandwiches, snacks, toys or as I plan, crayons for each kid. I making a different one for each kid with their "color" of KAM Snaps.
