    Hi all
    got my self a eyelet press,and dont know what size die is in it, got no marks anywhere. Had a sample of eyelets from signgeer . The lady on the phone said she would mark the bags up with sizes so i could tell whats what
    bag 1 says #2 which i beleive is 9.4 mm
    bag 2 says eyeclip 3 ?
    bag 3 says nothing, but they look like plastic
    none of them fit my press 9.4 is to small, eyeclip 3 is to big
    anyone have any idea what size i need.The phone number to the guy who i had the press off is now dead.
