Where do can I get Hog Nose Pliers?

So I went to Home Depot last night to pick up some Hog Rings and Hog Nose Pliers so I can get to work on the reupholstery job this weekend. No one in the store had a clue about what they were or where I could find them. If not at Home Depot, where should I go to pick these things up??

Not knowing where you live (no city state in your tag line) - you can always find them at a "farm and ranch" type store.

Check the Eastwood catalog. They have it all. If that fails you, then go to an upholstery supply shop.

You might PM "Bonehead Doctor", he may be able to steer you to a local vendor. (these are not a big ticket item).

I got a fairly nice set at Harbor Freight (you may have a local store)-see www.harborfreight.com. All chinese, but not bad and inexpensive.
