Practice creates masters!

I use these sleeves for my large garden flags which often don't have a flag sleeve on the end. Using these bushings with a regular bushing tool kit takes a little practice, but you'll get better every time! My advice: make sure the surface you're driving the bushing into is very strong and sturdy, as this is critical for both the initial hole cutting and the actual assembly. Sleeve. I personally use the flat anvil face of my vise and it seems to work great! Second, make sure you don't make the hole too close to the end of the fabric where you are going to tuck the sleeve. Before punching, check again that the sleeve does not hang over the edge of the fabric after insertion, because there is no second attempt! A heavier mallet or mallet works best for me. Again, you can spend 2-3 eyelets practicing before getting down to business. For your health!
