Review on ๐Ÿ•ณ๏ธ Retro Hole Puncher by Linda Diaz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I will no longer be using this tool

Maybe my expectations of this tool were too high. I expected a clean hole on dead soft, annealed 24 gauge copper. Although the tool drilled a hole in the copper, it deformed the copper plate. See photos. Also, I was expecting the pin to punch a hole, similar to how hole punches work, but that's not the case with this tool. Instead, because the pin is larger than the hole, the pin pushes against the hole instead of through it. I'm not exactly sure why the hole is there in the first place, because the perforated metal gets stuck in the hole because the hole is so small. It's hard to see, but the photo of the stylus shows that the stylus is now slightly deformed, which I believe should be the sharp edge of the stylus. I gave two stars instead of one because it has a nice glossy finish.

Pros
  • 2 HOLE PUNCH: Our screw punch makes 1.5mm (0.05") and 2.0mm (0.08") holes.
Cons
  • A few little things
