Travel Washers

I had to learn a couple things:

  1. How to etch on metal by looking researching the GF community. The Cermark spray was expensive ($65) at JPPLUS.com. Lots cheaper than $100+ on Amazon.
  2. I couldn’t find the 1/2" OD fender washers like the ones my daughter bought. Fender washers have smaller center holes so they have more area to etch on. Found some 5/8" OD at BoltDepot.com (Fender washers, Stainless steel 18-8, #6 x 5/8").
  3. I bought 1 1/4" split rings from Tandy Leather and they got sprung when trying to slide on the washers. Ended up with cheaper ones from Hobby Lobby. Book rings would work too.
  4. Bought a 1" trigger snap from Tandy that is really too heavy. Still looking for a lighter one.
