Northmount Posted October 27, 2020 Report Posted October 27, 2020 Hey @ABC3! Did you get it all sorted out? Let us know please. Tom Quote
Members ABC3 Posted October 27, 2020 Author Members Report Posted October 27, 2020 No it's not doing what it's advertised to do. Jim Weaver made a couple of suggestions but everything seems to be tight. It will perform great and all of a sudden it will punch the first hole (of seven in a belt strap) at 1" and then punch a couple of holes at 7/8": while the setting is 3/4. It's not off by much but just enough to screw up the project. I'm going to give it another week and if we cannot find a fix - I'll just return it. I hate to do that , I like the machine and we really can use it but it has to be reliable. I would like to talk to someone who has the machine to make certain I'm not doing something wrong. Maybe, Jim can turn me on to someone. Anyway guys thanks for all the help. Quote NRA Member Certified Firearms Instructor www.agcustomgunleather.com
Members ABC3 Posted October 31, 2020 Author Members Report Posted October 31, 2020 Mark842: @Mark842 If you see this post , could you give me a call (678/520-2695). JIm Weaver gave me 3 contacts to day to call to verify the reliability of the punch. I got 2 out of the 3 and both said they have had problems with the machine. I don't want to send it back but since you have not had any problems with the reliability of the machine I thought you might give me some pointers, adjustments, ect. Jim was totally surprised at the report I gave him . And we are both working together to fix the problems. Any help you could give us would be appreciated.l Thanks so much.

Members Danne Posted December 9, 2020 Members Report Posted December 9, 2020 I have tried a couple of different rotary punches and haven't been happy with them. A couple of years ago I found some old stock (New and not used) in a store here in Sweden from a company called Stahl in Germany. And have used this punch a lot and it's awesome. If you can find them online somewhere I would really recommend them. Quote
