I LOVE my Crop-a-dial!!!

[bobcat]

I finally broke down and bought one a week ago and I love it. It can punch anything! DS even punched thru an entire magazine, and I read that it can punch thru a cd and I was skeptical that it wouldn't shatter it so I tried it. Yes it can! If you don't have one it's a must have tool! Don't ever want to punch or set eyelets without it again!

Welcome to the club! I love mine! I don't know how I lived without one!

i have had mine forever and NEVER used it! it's been on the shelf just sitting there. maybe i should break it out and give it a try!

I love mine and DS(7) is fascinated and can't wait to get his grubby hands on it

I'm sure I will find holes punched in lots of things as 12yo DS had fun playing with it the other day! DDs boyfriend was even facinated with it the other night. I am just amazed with how easily and softly it punched thru this stuff!

I didn't buy them because I thought they would be too hard to use, but now they are on my list!

I have a question. What's an easy way to remember which dial to turn the little thingies to for each type of embellishment? I can't find the cardboard backing from the package that lists it all, and I keep ruining eyelets and such trying to figure out which setting works.

I've found that the numbers on each side should match (both 1s, for example) then I put the open end of the brad or snap over the "pointy thingy" and see which one gives a better fit. It is usually a clear difference.

I must have an older or newer version than you. One side on mine is numbers and the other side is letters.

Well that's what I get for not pulling the darn thing out before I speak. Yes, of course you're right - its letters and numbers. What I should have said was that in general, 1 and A go together, as do 3 and C. I haven't really used B and D yet so I can't confirm but I imagine they correspond to 2 and 4.
