I discovered that you do need to use more pressure than the original Crop-a-dile to set your eyelets and brads.

A popular theme on the scrapbooking market is manufacturers always trying to come up with great new eyelet setting tools. I don't use them decoratively too much but I use the hole punch part more often for brads, threading ribbons, tags etc. I punched holes in the tags at the top and bottom to thread the ribbon through then wrap around the biscotti and tie into a pretty bow.

I also find it great for punching holes in ribbon for putting a brad through - with ribbon like grosgrain or twill it's easier than trying to make a good hole with a knife blade. If you need help remembering the correct combinations to use with each type of eyelet, the original Crop-a-dile on-line tip sheet can help you with that.One thing to keep in mind when using this tool is to use the correct one of the three measuring bars. I love this tool, I loved the original but due to my dexterity issues did find spanning the two handles difficult.

You are not tied into a contract which means if you change your mind, there are no cancellation fees. Crop-A-Dile Big Bite Blue is the enhanced version of the Crop-A-Dile, reaching up to 6 inches, so you can punch and put eyelets anywhere in your papers and albums.I thought the “squishy” holders would get the ribbon all tangled too, maybe they don’t but I can’t see how they wouldn’t. I'd get the big bite (I've got the original and use it fairly often) if you plan to use it just at home- they're pretty hefty to carry around. Plus you push down rather than squeezing like the regular Crop-a-dile; I have big hands, but don't like the wide reach required to use it.
