Questions & Answers

Is it possible to punch clean holes in regular printer paper with this tool? My requirements are: (a) a long throat; and (b) the ability to punch hundreds of holes without tiring. ?

Yes, it can punch clean holes in regular printer paper. However, because the handle requires pressure and you'll have to pull the sheets from the punch, your project is unlikely to be completed quickly and without tiring you out. Officemate Heavy Duty 3 Hole Punch with Padded Handle, 40-Inch, is a product I would recommend. Black (90089), Medium (25-sheets), Sheet Capacity (Amazon) (99 cents)

Is it possible to use any brand of eyelets/grommets with this set, or do they have to be Crop- What is the name of the brand?

Greetings, br>You should be able to use any eyelets/grommets as long as they meet the Crop-In requirements. The specifications of Dile When purchasing the eyelets/grommets, I would double-check that. Good luck with your projects!

Is the hole punched by this tool left with an indentation or is it a 'clean' hole? Thanks! ?

It's a spotless pit. If you're punching deep holes in paper, this tool is useful. If you only need to punch holes or add eyelets to the corners of 2inch papers, use the smallest one, a crop dile. It's lighter and easier to use.

Will it be able to cut through five sheets of cardstock? I'm looking for a tool that will allow me to make 1/8-inch holes in my gift tags without having to drill them out individually. each one with a punch?

Yes, I cut through six layers of 110 pound paper. with precision on cardstock

Selected User Reviews For Crop-A-Dile 2 Big Bite Punch by We R Memory Keepers | Silver and Blue

Why not include a standard 1/4" hole punch size as well? I couldn't believe how difficult it was to locate an item similar to this
4/5

I'm a teacher, and we do a lot of projects in my classes that involve LED lights and other similar items, and a hole punch is ideal for making holes for use with lights. Because our handheld punches, as well as the larger desk models we have, did not go far enough into the card stock or paper, I came here to look for a solution. br>br>A simple hole puncher should be easy to come by, but the majority of the handheld ones I saw had a reach of only 2 inches and punched shapes that were not circular. Please, businesses, step up: Examine your competitors' products, develop something better, and target a market that has yet to be reached. Make a 4 inch reach with a 1/4 circular hole and you'll have the buyers all to yourself. There are a half-dozen brands of the same-looking puncher that's 2 inches, for goodness sakes, and you'll have the buyers all to yourself. br>br>This was the best I could come up with for what I needed. It's a shame that the product's designers didn't include a third size, which is the standard 1/4" found on hand punchers. Fortunately, the 3/16" hole created by this fits my LEDs, but if you're going to go to the trouble of making such a nice product, at the very least include the standard size hole option. br>br>I deducted one star because there is no 1/4" option, and the area on the bottom of the punch where the cut pieces of paper should be stored is wide open, causing them to fall out all over the desk.

WARNING: THIS IS AN EXTREMELY EXTREMELY E A great idea for a useful tool was ruined by poor quality materials! It's extremely difficult to align the eyelet so that it perfectly centers on the bottom/base square piece
3/5

If it doesn't, the eyelet will be deformed when it's set, and it will also harm the soft, poor-quality leather. The metal center is surrounded by high-quality plastic, which creates "pits" in which the eyelets catch and become stuck. This occurred during the first project, which required 24 3/16" eyelets and had a number of off-target results. "Missing" in the center. Any eyelet that isn't perfectly centered when it hits the base now gets stuck. Furthermore, the smaller hole punch does not line up by a significant distance, making it impossible to use. In a fit of rage, I gave up on the whole thing. This pitting issue could have been completely avoided if the base/bottom square had been made entirely of hardened metal rather than plastic, or at the very least, if a HARD plastic had been used. My husband is a machinist, has been for 45 years, and is very knowledgeable about metals and plastics. He says the plastic is total China crap and should never have been used in this application. So, if you plan to use this tool frequently, you'd better have perfect aim with a perfectly seated eyelet that hits the bottom base ON CENTER EVERY TIME, or you'll end up with an expensive, useless tool. I was so excited to get my hands on this tool, but I'm so disappointed that a great idea for a very useful gadget was ruined by the use of low-quality materials! After only one use, I will contact the seller to request a refund.

Great concept, but poor execution and quality control
3/5

As many other reviews have stated, without using a manual setter and mallet, this is the only way to insert eyelets deeper into projects. br>br>All of this is fine, as is the design. The quality, on the other hand, is woefully lacking. My 3/16 punch kept catching on the side of the hole it feeds into after I ordered one. After that, I attempted to create an eyelet. It appeared to be a disaster. I figured I just needed more practice, so I set a goal of 20 on a variety of materials of various thicknesses. On the back, they all looked like garbage and were razor-sharp to the touch. I ordered a replacement, but the new one has the same problems, with the exception that when punching, it catches on both holes. Great concept and initial design, but what good is it if you can't afford to invest in the proper materials to make it worthwhile?.

Mostly of no use
3/5

I received two and returned two, and I'm hesitant to try a third after reading other reviews about the same issue. Because of the positive feedback, I decided to keep trying. The 1/8th hole on both of them did not line up and will not punch, rendering a third of the tool useless. Because the instructions are so bad, I had to rely on YouTube videos to figure out how to use it. Very let down.

This tool had piqued my interest, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it
3/5

It . This tool had piqued my interest, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. It was delivered tonight. The 1/8 hole punch was slightly off center, which I noticed. The hole's side was scratched by the post. I gave it a couple of tries to see if it would be a problem. It is, in fact- It is now stuck in the hole after two attempts without paper, and nothing on the tool moves or works. Yep- I'm going back as quickly as I can. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> I was able to correct the problem, but I am still dissatisfied. The set eyelet's back is a complete disaster. True, the "We R Memory Keepers" eyelets separate better, but they are still inconsistent. I'll see what I can do to get it back. The packaging was chipped and shredded when it arrived, and I had to cut it open to get the product out, so it was thrown away. Let's see how things turn out.

It's excellent for the job
5/5

I've recently become interested in print and play board games, and I've been creating a variety of components. Dials and wheels are one of the more difficult items to make. I needed to make some dials for a game out of chipboard, and the only problem I had was figuring out how to punch holes and join the two circles together. I used to use an X-ray machine. To make a slit, use an acto knife. The circles would then be held together with a paper fastener. The dials were not turning smoothly, and the cut was not as centered as I would have liked. The Crop- Dile made it possible for me to punch perfect dial holes. This is an excellent tool. As much as I enjoy it, I recognize that it is a tool with a specific function. I haven't found a use for it other than punching holes for dials. Scrapbooking isn't something I'm interested in. I'm glad I purchased it, but I wish I could put it to better use.

I couldn't get it to work for me
3/5

This was purchased a few years ago, but it is still on my Amazon review list. Hmmmm, I thought I had already reviewed this. Oh well. This thing just didn't work as well as it was advertised. My punching mechanism was misaligned, so all of the punches were off-center and failing horribly.
