So, I read reviews here and got worried. I wish the makers of the product had included instructions with the tool but since they didn't and I found this SUCH A GREAT TOOL I thought I'd write down how I used it. The tool has two working parts, cutter and crimper.1. Take out the small screw protruding from the piston. You'll find it just below the ruler-like markers. This allows the tool to be opened so that it can be used.2. Hold the tool with the ruler on top. The part with the ruler is the part that cuts a hole in the fabric. I was able (even with arthritic hands) to pierce at least 4-6 layers of tissue. Of course, the more layers, the harder it is to break through.3. After the hole is punched, insert the brass bushing into the hole in the fabric. You want the straight part of the eyelet to go towards the wrong side of your fabric.4. Now take a close look at the other working part of the tool itself, right at the front, which I call the crimper. The top has a straight stem and the bottom has a beveled stem. The straight pin is inserted into the front (top) part of your work where the nice rounded finished sleeve is. When using it this way, a relatively light squeeze ensures a clean ferrule crimp every time. I hope this helps other people to use this tool. I used it to add grommets to the top of a very large curtain set and then wanted to find other things to use. I absolutely love this little instrument. I can only assume that people who didn't have a good experience with it didn't know how to use it because there are no instructions. Much luck!
