I make 2" buttons professionally and must have a precision hole puncher in my assembly line. Over the years I have tried every brand available, and found them all wanting. EK Tools seems to make the best, but 50% of the time the product fails on the first punch and has to be replaced. The rest begin to fail within about a dozen punches. They start out with a nice crimp cut, but before long the alignment of the die head gets wobbly, the cut edge gets mushy, the paper tears, and hole punch jams. At this point the cuts are no longer a complete circle and almost every punch has to be cleaned up with scissors anyway. And that's the best scenario. Because the die is misaligned, sometimes it jams so hard the cutting edge is damaged too much to function.
I've dismantled this product and discovered the primary problem is that the two metal pieces, the hole and the punch, are only connected by springs inside. They do not move along a fixed track. That means that the punch is only as accurate as the wiggle of the plastic encasing.
I would not recommend this product to anyone. Unfortunately it's the best you're going to find.

The fact that this can be used upside down to position images correctly within the punched circle was ideal for the needs of the project worked on, and much easier than alternative options.
Reasonably priced product which should last well. Locking mechanism for storage is highly appreciated.
80g Papier lässt sich jedoch einzeln nicht sauber ausstanzen, da sollte man dann 2-3 Blätter nehmen.
