Do I need a Leather Hole Punch Tool to put them in my bulldog collar?

I personally do not use one, but highly recommend it. I would imagine they would make things easier...

This will make a clean hole without burs in thin gauge metal. A Mason Jar lid qualifies as thin gauge sheet metal. However, this tool will leave a sharp edge on one side of the punched hole. The key to getting what you want is to make sure the female die (the one with the hole) is away from the drinking side of the lid. The male die (the one that actually punches the hole) tends to push the sharp edge away from it. It you are punching holes for straws you might want to use a small hammer and flatten the sharp side of the hole. Another trick is to use as a drill bit that is several sizes bigger than the hole punched. using nothing more than your fingers, gently twist the drill bit to shave off the sharpest edge. Hope that helps.

I have not used the set on leather yet, but I am sure it will work. Use each "hole cutter/punch" by hand or with a hammer to cut or punch holes into leather.

The tools are made of metal and can be used to punch holes in materials such as, leather. In my experience with these punches, they needed to be sharpened before they could be used on any material. I would suggest buying a better quality set.

I think this is your best bet for punching holes in a mason jar lid. a drill will just make a mess. this punches nice clean holes in sheet metal.

I did a quick search on the brass I.D. tag you mentioned, and I have to admit they look pretty cool. I think with a bit of careful planning, they would work just fine with this collar. Obviously you will need a tool to puncture through the leather in order to pass the rivets through.

The Knipex hole punch takes a certain amount of hand strength to get through regular thickness leather. The compound leverage punch requires less physical hand strength to make a nice hole.

I used a hammer and an ice pick. The ice pick was to poke the holes needed to insert the grommet pieces, and the hammer was used to mesh the two piece grommet together once its inserted into the collar.

No, this machine punches small rectangular holes for comb binders. For spiral binding, you need little round holes for the spiral binders.

no. it was just a bag with collar. I used the plastic connector from the old one, it saved me money. thank you

No way! The case they come in says they are leather punches. Falsely advertised.

I sent these punches back. I needed to cut holes in vinyl banner material, and all that happened was that the punch itself deformed (the sharp edge rounded over). I did use a hammer to punch

This is a great small Arbor Press. There is a 1/4" hole bored into the press that can hold tools (like a punch/die). But you'd need the die, a base plate, and I'd want the leather to be no more than say 1/16" thick. for punching holes.

Using the supplied socket & collar hardware, you would probably need a hole 1-5/8 inch diameter.

I use these on harness leather . These hole punches are a must have and work great in conjunction with a leather wheel hole punch.I recommend a kitchen vinyl plastic cutting board as an additional to act as an punch board.----I hope this info helps you

I do not know. The Bosch Brute upright jack hammer, not the hand held model, is what I own and it would not fit. Shank was too short. The Brute uses an 1 1/8 inch hex bit and this was too short to fit the lock down collar over it. It might fit a handheld model.

Mine have always come with a little stick to punch the hole. I would use anything that would open the hole in the indention, but not puncture the bottom. The stick that comes with it is like a Q tip with no cotton and flat bottom. I twist it around the complete hole to be sure it is really open. I have had great success with these traps.
