Wimpy Lever Punches
Yep, that's about how many butterflies I was able to punch before the lever broke off the punch. I hate those wimpy lever punches. They are especially fragile with intricate punches, which of course, are the ones I like. I always press down on the lever and the punch itself, trying to even the pressure, coax it along. Snap!I need to stick with die cuts. I'm starting to enter the pre-show frantic-ness I've come to know and love :-\ otherwise I'd take a weekend to work with and learn to use my KNK Groove. After the show, then it's time to get serious. I hope I'm over anticipating the learning curve with this. I can't wait.

Hi Stefani! Your Groove is going to save you SO much time! I can't wait to see what you do with it! Keep in touch, I'll design some things for you :o). Oh, and keep one of the those little butterflies...you can just scan it then trace it with your Groove software. Then your machine will cut a whole page of them for you.
Darcy :o)

I don't know Stefani, seems like it might be worth the time to learn how to use that groove thing. Save more time in the long run. I'm just sayin'
I have to agree with Mom! Time spent know will be repaid in DOLLARS in the future!
Um, er, I LOVE my lever punches and have never ever broken one. I think you have built up those upper-body muscles from using non-lever punches, and you do not know your own strength! Yeah, that's it!
