Review on Tandy Leather Craftool Four 3052 00 by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This four hole punch is amazing! I looked at batting sets.

This four hole punch is awesome! I've been looking for hole punch sets and I'm glad I found this tool which is adjustable and can punch 1, 2, 3 or 4 holes at a time. I use it to pierce thin skin. Before each hit, I put a little bit of beeswax on the tip and then hit it with a hammer. This is PERFECT and makes the leather much easier to work with as I used to use an awl to punch individual holes. I highly recommend Tandy Leather's video. Paste this into Youtube search: wMVk-34PtJE and watch Tandy's video titled 4-in-1 Punch #3052-00. The video features a person using this punch to make holes, talks about beeswax and slightly wet leather, shows how to go from four punches to less, and demonstrates how to maneuver around a corner. I watched the video before buying so I knew exactly what to expect. The product description states that other steel pipes of various sizes are available for purchase. Having not found them yet I wrote to Tandy Leather for more information and will post them here when I get a reply from them.
