Can the edge punches be removed so it could do a single punch right in the center?

I tried it and actually made a video of it. Hope this helps people see how it works....

No, but you can take the middle piece off with a knife, it takes a couple minutes but it makes it thumb friendly.

Yes, although it requires a little effort. You need a screwdriver to move the punchers, so it isn't something that is convenient if you need to go back and forth frequently.

Yes. You have to allow for the size of the bit. And if you don't have a punch bit you can make multiple passes but the punch bit works really well. Also insure that you use the same size drill bit to make a start hole on the inside of your outer edge.

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.

Yes, this will work, but it has no guides for you to align the paper before punching, so you have to wing it.

the people posting the bad reviews DO NOT know how to use thin punches. Pins are tapered they go in from the left and come out from the right unless the manufacturer specifically specifies otherwise. If the piece you are working on is not properly supported, with room for the pin to move as it is being removed, you WILL damage the weakest link, the same goes if the punch is not in proper alignment wit the pin. In complete and brutal honesty, those posting the bad reviews seem to be the tools, not the punches.

Yes, but mine was missing a part and was useless. I had planned to use a 2 5/8" hole punch, though, and that worked perfectly.

Turn the plastic top until the half circle opening lines up with the half circle solid piece then punch out. I use a butter knife to punch it out.

I don't se why not as you can punch a stack of around 20 sheets of regular paper at once. I would suppose it would depend on how heavy and how laminated as I don't know what keeps the dyes for punching the holes sharp. I can say I would have given this machine more stars if I could as it is so easy to use! Punching the holes is just merely pressing an on off button, similar to turning on and off any other appliance.

Yes you can. If the paper is too thin it might get distorted around the area where you punch the hole.

It's a 2:1 ratio punch, 1/4 inch between holes and ~1/2 inch from center to center of the holes punched.

Yes, you can see the image and where you position the circle, by turning it over. Then you can place it just where you need it. I love mine. It is a great punch.

I purchased this paper punch and its works very well for my 7 hole pages. However, my planner has the center 3 holes slightly closer together. Double check your planner to see if this is also true for yours. The punches can NOT be adjusted on this unit.

Sauder does put "punch outs" in the backing, you can also cut the backing with a utility knife if you need a hole somewhere else.
