Usage tips :
- Use an ERTALON plate, a vinyl plate, or a self-healing mat as a cutting surface.
- Your punch must be perfectly vertical when striking.
- Strike with a wooden or polymer mallet; it should be heavy enough for precise and less tiring cutting. Do not use a steel hammer. With one strike of the mallet, you mark several holes in the leather to create your stitches. You can also completely pierce thin leathers (max 1mm).
- When marking thick leathers, do not hesitate to apply a thin layer of beeswax to the teeth to facilitate gliding and prevent damage to the punch.
Hardened steel blade.- When marking thick leathers, do not hesitate to apply a thin layer of beeswax to the teeth to facilitate gliding and prevent damage to the punch.

What spacing should I choose for my creation ?
Spacing is the distance between two points: it should be chosen according to the item you wish to create (aesthetic choice).
