Will this punch shrinks dinks? I have to cut 500 circles, and my fiskars punch went kaput after 75...

Shouldn't be a problem. But just thinking of your project makes my thumb ache.

I have only used the 1/2 inch punch and it only reaches about an inch or so into the sheet. I assume the 3/8 inch punch is larger, but it only reaches as far as the end of the punch, which looks to be about 2 or so inches. I hope that helps.

I believe some people reported problems. The punch is a bit soft, not the pins. Brownell's sells a stiffer punch.

This punch is not adjustable. It will punch only the 'standard' 7 hole size and nothing else.

No, it didn't work well at all and I did not use it. I had about three bad cuts before I trashed this. I suggest you send it back to the factory.

I just looked at my cutter, and I don't understand how the blade "jams", unless it has been bent; there is nothing for it to hit, or jam against, unless something has changed shape. How long have you had the Stik? You might contact Fiskars. They have been very generous when I've spoken to them. If you need a replacement blade, they should be able to help you, if the movable blade is bent. If the stationary blade is the problem, I'm not sure if it can be replaced; the movable blade is held by one bolt, so I assume it would be an easy replacement.

No. You should look at the Fiskars Circle Cutter, which cuts 1-8 inch circles, and you set the size.

It will, but after a few tries. When using it, you need to try and stabilize the punch. I am not very happy with it and barely use it.

these uchida punchs are great, but amazon is not good about giving the correct size of the punched out shape. I go to createforless.com to get the real measurements. the 3 1/2" square punch is really 2 7/16 inches square. there is a rectangle also, you can get the measurements there also. good luck. hope you find what you need. it looks like extra giga is what you are looking for

The holes are round but I would advise not ordering this punch. I have found that I cannot press hard enough to punch through a leather belt without first starting the hole with a drill or something and just using the punch to clean up the hole.

I think you would have a problem with something as thick as a penny.The punch is great but for a penny I would use a drill.

Hi s. Miller. I can get two large or three small. I find that if I add more it smashes more than cuts. Hope this helps

I was doing similar cutting and found out to get the best cut I had to blow across the blade opening after 3 cuts. It seemed to get clogged with almost invisabe pieces of paper. I was using a new blade. Oncertainly I was done with all the fussy cutting blade works fine. Been told that a blade last 3 - 6 months with normal cutting. I had used a previous blade for Six months.

I have used card stock as pamphlet covers and this machine cleanly punches. Today, I tested four sheets of cardstock. The machine punched through all four sheets cleanly and smoothly, without any extra effort. I have never used cardstock heavier than the usual 65 paperweight. Hope this helps. Thanks.

Hey There, Just experimented. I was not able to punch more than 3 at a time. That was a squeeze, and I imagine it would dull the edges of your punch quicker, which would be noticeable on your paper edges over time. I'd say 2 comfortably, 3 with a tad more effort. Hope this helps. Oh, I also took a greeting card and folded it in half and was able to punch two from it. Aluminum foil for sharpening if you didn't already know. Layer some pieces, and punch to sharpen.

It shrinks. In some applications consider using a "burn-in" knife to liquify, drip, then smooth plastic resin. Look up Behlin Burn-In Sticks. Cool stuff and more permanent.

Hi There, This question had me curious, so I just tried it, and it works. Parchment paper is a little more fibrous than scrapbook paper, so it's best to use a quick snap-like punching motion to get a nice clean circle punch out, worked great for me. Hope you find this information helpful. September ~ AlteredAttic ;-)
