Place cardstock or sheet paper under the punch mechanism. Press down firmly to create a clean, crisp 5.08 cm (2-inch) circle. For best results and accuracy, use the punch upside down. Ensure the safety lock is disengaged before punching and engaged for storage. ### Can this paper punch be used with A4 paper in India? Yes, this punch creates a 5.08 cm (2-inch) circle, which is a standard size. While A4 paper is larger, the punch will cut a precise 2-inch circle from any part of the A4 sheet. Confirm the paper thickness is within the recommended range for cardstock. ### How to maintain the EK Tools paper punch? To maintain sharpness, periodically punch through a few pieces of aluminum foil. This helps to hone the cutting blade. Store the punch with the safety lock engaged to prevent accidental operation and keep the mechanism clean. ### What is the best way to store this paper punch? The EK Tools paper punch features a safety lock. Slide the lock towards the center to unlock for use, and push down the punch while sliding away to lock it. This keeps the punch compact and safe for storage in craft drawers or toolkits. ### Is this paper punch suitable for bulk crafting in India? Yes, its durable metal construction is designed for repeated use, making it suitable for bulk crafting projects. For large-scale needs, consider the efficiency of creating multiple identical circles quickly compared to manual cutting. ### How to choose a paper punch for crafting? Consider the desired shape and size of the punch, the material it needs to cut (cardstock is ideal for this model), and its durability. This EK Tools punch offers a precise 2-inch circle in a sturdy metal build, suitable for most paper crafting needs. ### Does this paper punch create holes for binding?
