Hole Punch

Drill precise holes

Your Hole Punch is the perfect tool for drilling holes of different sizes so you can make cuts from the middle of your cardboard, connect pieces, and add fun details to your projects.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • 1. Pick a size

    Look at the sections on the tip of the tool. Each step is a different-sized hole—the bigger the number, the bigger the hole!

  • 2. Drill a hole

    Hold the tool like a screwdriver and twist it into the cardboard. The more you twist, the cleaner the hole will be.

  • 3. Tidy up

    If needed, flip the cardboard over and twist from the other side to clean up the hole.

  • Bonus tip

    Keep following along to learn how to cut out windows and other shapes!

  • 4. Place the hole

    Once you have punched a hole, you can place your cardboard on your ChompSaw with the hole around the cutting head.

  • 5. Cut your design

    Use your ChompSaw to cut out your design. Remember to push straight in the direction of the arrow (away from you).

  • All done!

Tip:

Twist, don't jam! For a clean hole, twist gently and keep going. If you punch too hard, you might get a crater instead of a neat hole.
