Note: The lift the dot receivers use a special tool to cut the slots and hole. I Have one, but damn thing cost more than the box of 100 peices.

Here is the tool for only $18 US on ebay. Good deal.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Never-Used-L...YAAOSwhcJWO6be And here is the company that makes the lift the dot fasteners. Not sure if they sell direct to public, but they do list prices per 100. There is a shopping cart so I suspect they do sell retail. The carrier uses government black. They also sel the common sense fasteners like used on Jeeps and other military vehicles. http://www.dotfasteners.com/lift_the_dot.html

Dot fastness and tool
Hi
I've found the Dot posts, and fastners at canvas shops and marine equipment shops, probably cheeper per piece to buy them in bags of hundred but that way I'd have 50 or 60 left over after doing three trucks. As to the tool to punch the holes, I just marked the main center hole and the little holes for the fold tabs. Then used one of the standard hole punch tools with the 5 different size punches on a wheel. Cheers Phil

One ebay source for the black Lift-The-Dot fasteners.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lift-The-Dot...5UoHFg&vxp=mtr Beachwood Canvas also sells online. https://www.beachwoodcanvas.com/order/productlist.cfm I haven't dealt with either to comment on service but both seem to have been around for a while.
