Questions & Answers
Why do you need a new tip, I'm not sure. Is it broken or has it simply become unfastened? If the needle has come out or has become loose due to use, simply replace it in its hole and tighten the piercer by twisting the wedge to the right. If it's broken, I'd contact the company and request that the entire piece be replaced. I hope this information is useful to you.
should, but only in the tiniest of crevices
Yes, if a "brass fastener" is what you're talking about. It will create a hole through which the fastener will be pushed, and then use the opposite end to split the prongs apart. It's a great tool for brads and other similar items.
Yes, small holes for mini brads can be pierced with this tool.
Selected User Reviews For Brad Setter & Piercing Tool by We R Memory Keepers (White or Blue)
I've never used brads in my scrapbooking career, despite the fact that I've been scrapbooking for ten years. I know - I'm not sure how I managed to go so long without using them. Making a scrapbook for my niece was a major undertaking for me. I promised her a book many years ago when she turned eighteen. I wanted it to be different from what I usually do every year for the little kids. She's no longer a child, so I figured I'd have to step up my game. Furthermore, she enjoys glitter, and I am well aware of how difficult it is to get anything to adhere to specialty papers. As a result, I made the decision to learn to brad. After watching a few YouTube videos, I was convinced that I was ready to purchase what I required. On Amazon, I purchased three different packs of brads as well as this brad setter. I read the reviews and decided it was a good deal, so I placed my order. It was a cinch with this brad setter! It was perfect for the various types and sizes of brads I used. Simply pierce a hole where you want the brad to go with the piercing tip. Then, with the other side of the setter in between the brad sides, slide the brad into that hole. and rock the brad back and forth until it is flush with the paper! It's incredibly simple. You can't split the brads by breaking your nails. To avoid scratching your work surface, you'll need to purchase a piercing mat to place underneath the paper. I used it to go through three different types of specialty paper and had no issues. I'm glad I learned this skill because it made this scrapbook so much better than it would have been if the brads hadn't been used. This brad setter comes highly recommended by me.
It comes in handy a lot of the time. Without it, I wouldn't be able to split brads. The strange, twisted handle, which is possibly meant to be ergonomic but instead gets in the way, is the only drawback. You can't just grab it and go because of this stupid handle - It's difficult to keep it in your hands. In addition, the one I received was not green as shown or pink as advertised, but rather an unappealing white silicone that attracts and shows all kinds of workbench dust and fibers. Blech. However, it is extremely useful.
I had no idea what to expect from this application. I needed a tool to punch holes in scrapbook pages so I could insert brads, and I needed it to be small. Normally, I would use a punch and hammer, but that wasn't an option this time. I'm glad I went with this program. It's small and lightweight, so it's convenient to transport. It is sturdy and sharp, and it made holes through layers of paper and ribbon with little effort. I didn't split the brad ends with the triangular end. I usually do it with my fingernails, but it appears that this tool would work just as well, and it is definitely a tool worth the money.
This was used to poke holes in the back of a 20x20 shadow box to hold the ribbon that I used to attach NFL Game lapel pins. It made quick work of what I needed to do, and I'll be using it again as my needs grow.
I'm a crafty person, so I already had several awls and hammers of various sizes, so I didn't really need it because I already had tools that would have done the job. It does the job and only requires one tool, which is a plus, but I needed it for furniture brads, the kind that have three prongs. They have four teeth. However, I'm keeping it because it's simple and convenient to use. It was well worth the money.
The piercing tool makes it simple to begin drilling the hole where your brad will go with pinpoint accuracy. And the Brad Setter does a fantastic job of securing your brad to whatever medium you're working with. This is a must-have tool for anyone who works with brads. It's going to be a game changer!.
I'm a huge fan of this useful tool. It's sold as a brad setter, but it can do so much more! It's great for creasing paper, threading holes, picking up small gemstones and embellishments (with a little glue on the end, of course), and so much more! I like how the needle unscrews and can be flipped around to reduce the risk of an accident. In addition, the 'handle' has a great ergonomic design! We R is unquestionably doing things correctly.
Pulling it out of the paper caused the pointed end to come out, making it difficult to re-insert. The next time I use it, it will come out again. The other end of the brad isn't very good at opening it. My fingernails are what I prefer to use.
