I am trying to set eyelets on to nylon webbing (I am making dog collars), the problem I am running into is that I cannot get the eyelet to go through the webbing so that I can set it. I am trying to use a two piece eyelet (one with a top and a bottom) and I am fairly condifent that if I could get it though the webbing I could set it. I do have an eyelet punch, but the holes it makes are not big enough to get the eyelet through, even though the punch and the eyelet size are the same. Any ideas on how to punch the nylon so I can set the eyelet? I did see a wheel type hand tool that could punch through leather, do you think that would work?
