Californiafrau- as soon as it arrives you shall have it. It looks fab BUT you couldn't use it in the middle of a 12 x 12

I like it. Some people prefer the MM setter or the fiskars spring loaded one but I am really taken with my silent setter. Worth every penny!

Pixiefish · 07/06/2006 20:45

If you want to set in the middle of a LO then you need the silent setter. The cropadile is more for putting eyeletts in thicker material and things like tin

lol pc!! I thought you was talking about a craft item!!
sounds nice tho!!

right... here goes, I decided to try it on a coaster as that's quite thick.

I read the instructions all wrong!! well was watching recording of lost at the time!!

remembered the video demo and I was using the wrong bit to make a holeBlush

the hole puncher went thru the coaster as tho it was butter!!, so much so that I made another one just for fun LOL.

now for the setter part.... swiveled the swivel heads round to the right size and pressed down, I over pressed as I expected it to be hard, IT'S FABBBBBBBBBBBBBBB!!!!!

I can NOT believe it's that easy!! I LOVE IT!!(can ya tell??Wink)

Californifrau!! you soooooo need this!! I have the silent setter and this is waayy easier to use. The SS is brill, dont get me wrong. It's silent and all but I do have to twist quite hard for some eyelets, my hands do hurt if I have to do quite a few.
I am now looking forward to doing more eyelts now!!

I'm really wanting to test it on metal now, to see if it really lives up to it's claims.

I must say if y'all can afford it...go for it.....

did i mention that it's PINK!!!

ahhh yes, here's the link for the \link{http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2061004486862778848&q=We+R+Memory+Keepers\video demo}

oooopppps!! spent so long typing away, I crossed posts.

Californifrau - i'd say the C-A-D is the best first eyeletter as it's sooo easy.

i agree that you haven't got the sbility to eyelit anywhere you want with the C-A-D
