How far will I be able to go from the edge to punch the circle. I need to go from the edge in about 1-2 inches. Will this work?

Sorry, but no. I pushed the paper all the way in and it's under an inch from the edge of the paper to the edge of the circle.

Howdy, I would first contact the company. If that don't work out, try a dull center punch. But don't hit it too hard.Let me how you come out.

It isn't exactly easy nor does it jump right out at you. To attach the blade you first put in the end closest to where your hands grip the handle. To get the outside end of blade on you lean on the cutter with the blade up and the end of the head on a stump or rock. This will close up the "C" enough to allow you get the blade onto the first indent in the end. You can also throw it in a vise to get it this far. Once you've got it that far you can just hit it very hard in the center of the blade and it will pop on all the way. Hope that helps.

Yes it will. I love mine. It comes with a ring for easy pull up. I purchased 3 others for family. I do not find it to have sharp edges. Buy it, you won't be dissapointed.

I had limited space and it did not work for me. I believe an inch is too little. It will clip but it will rock back towards your child as soon as any pressure is applied to the edge.

very close - within 1/4 of an inch. it might work if you smash the roll a bit

Actually, all three punches move into pre-set positions, but if you don't need to set them at the center of the punch, you can get them as close to each other as 1.5 inches. There are 11 pre-set positions total, all in an 8.5 inch range.

Yes, I can help! Place the punch on a firm surface. Side facing you should be with the gray arrows. Hold down the punch arm and move the gray piece to the left. It will unlock. You must have the arm held down to lock or unlock. I hope this helps, it's an excellent punch. If you have trouble or have any other questions, ask away. Patricia Robinson.

The miter track has to be approx. 6 inches from the cutter, otherwise, won't work.

RSK said on November 16, 2014 | EditNo I don't believe that the handle could take the pressure needed to punch through that hard and thick of a metal. I have used this device on what it was intended to be used on (sheet metals) and it works very nicely. For one, the punch itself is flat and has a centering point. Something as thick as a quarter would no doubt work better with a punch that was slanted so that the entire circumference of the hole wouldn't be met all at once.The handle and device in general are well constructed. It is simply not intended for that type of metal.

I found it to be a bit stiff, Take your thumb and rest it on the top of the most up right punch with your hand around the neck, push forward with your thumb till it moves and keep going till it clicks. FYI push firmly.

Hi Jonathan. When you come to the end of the paper and you are left with 1/2 and arch, turn the new edge around to face you and punch between the full arch and 1/2 arch of the first edge. This means that you will lose the 1/2 arch of the first edge and your paper size or card will be a wee bit smaller than when you started. Hope this helps :) Rosi

In my review I stated 1 1/2" radius. Upon re-measuring you could probably get a 1" radius without damaging the shaft but the grasping fingers may not grip as tightly due to the bind.

Use a 1/4 0r 1/8 inch punch depending on what you are punching. I use the 1/4 ch on thick paper to crochet around.

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.

I think all the XL squeeze punches are 2". I have an EK Success 3" scalloped punch (Paper Shaper) which is easy to use. The squeeze is easier but this is a close second.
