I got this punch to use in journal making, but it turned out that the whole was too large. I decided to keep it because we'll, it's Martha.This is a nice heavy duty 1/4 inch punch but it could have been much more wonderful if it had been made with a longer reach into the paper area. It is quite a small one.This punch is great for my uses of punching dots to use on my fish luresI would not recommend buying this whole punch. I used mine for two craft projects and it is already useless. It sticks and doesn't cut clean. I used it to cut through a single layer of card stock and I ended up having to go buy another hole punch to finish my project. If I had saved the packaging I would have sent it back.This unit is built like a tank, but all that is useless because it doesn't punch a clean hole. It always produces a hanging chad. We're sending it back. Cheaper punches work a lot better!This is just what it says - HEAVY DUTY. With aging hands it can be difficult to use a paper punch, but not this one!Great heavy duty hole punch. I am punching heavy card stock with no problem.just what i needed, nice qualityReally good quality and doesn't hurt your hand like some other makes. Highly recommend.Really robust and looks as if it will last forever. Cuts cleanly and quickly.
