Helpful Tip from Chris
When piercing a starter hole, place a Poly Punching Plate underneath your project to help protect your work surface. Begin with gentle pressure and gradually work the tapered point into the material until the opening reaches the size you need.
If you need a consistently sized round hole for installing rivets, use the 2mm Hole Punch Tool instead. Always keep your fingers clear of the extra sharp point.
