Review on 📚 Heidi Swapp Cinch Book Binding Machine - Pink and White (We R Memory Keepers) by Barbara Simmons

I had so much fun with the girth packaging: it was very well protected. It was shipped to me internationally via Amazon and arrived in perfect condition and I paid half of what I would normally pay via a second carrier. I was a little annoyed when I first used this tool because I noticed black oil around the perforated edges. . I wouldn't blame the company or Amazon on the carrier as I live in a very hot country, I would suspect it was caused by the heat and I also used it as soon as it arrived and it was still hot . I tried to clean it up before using it in my project. So if you live in a hot place, you may have the same problem, but it's easy to clean. Try erasing and punching it a few times before you start your project. The functionality of the product itself is great. It was very easy to use, especially if you watch a YouTube video before trying it. The manual that comes with it is not very helpful as it is very large and you need a lot of space to open and read it. So I didn't benefit much from it. The strap punches square holes. And on the nib itself you can see which clamp to pull depending on the size of the paper. that you will use. And you shouldn't exceed 20 sheets of lightweight paper at a time. I would also like to perforate each chipboard individually. I had a hard time figuring out the size of tie wire used as the wire I bought had no instructions on the box (I used Heidi Swapp). Scenery Set Cinch Insta), so I had to visually determine when to stop pressing the binding wire. I used a Heidi Swapp cinch insta album kit with a strap and this is my first project using a tool like this. I definitely don't regret the purchase although it cost me a lot since I live in UAE and the shipping cost is very high especially for heavy products. Things you definitely need to have fun with this tool: If you have any questions, I'm happy to help.
