where can I buy a relatively cheap thumb cut punch for calanders ie where the wire hanger goes.?

Question

This punch provides the hoe at the centre of the top edge of the calendar to allow the pages to turn over

Answer 1

if it is just a small hole you need to punch out try partners the staioners as i got a punch that works like a nut cracker or pair of pliers and is actually less work than a thumb punch! i think it is just called a single hole punch! hope this helps !

Answer 2

If you are not doing many probably easiest to make a cardboard template the width of your paper with the shape cut out then pencil round it and cut out with scissors or a scalpel - a swivel blade scalpel works particularly well around curves.

You might do it with a circle punch from a craft shop. There are quite a few differnent sizes. Don't push it all the way in. Trouble is these punches are not intended to cut more than a couple of thin sheets of paper at a time and lining it up would be difficult but might be done by making marks around the edges of your paper and punch to line the next sheet up with.

You can get a wire binding machine specially for calendars which does the cut out as it punches the holes for the wire. Normal wires and a little metal hanger with a loop that slots into the wire. Not cheap though about £300 to £400 with a supply of wires.
