What is the size of punching area?

The Double Post Punch punches approximately 3/4 inch from the edge of the paper. The holes are approximately 1 inch apart, each with a diameter of 1/16 inch.
Are the punches sold separately?
Yes, the punches can now be purchased separately. You will find many uses for both punches, so the kit is a great starter to creating earring cards. (includes earring card blanks). The kit is also attractively packaged for gift giving.
How thick can the cards be to be punched?
The punches should have no problem punching paper and cardstock up to 100 lb weight. For example, regular business cards are 80 lb weight. Thicker business cards are 100 lb weight. Scrapbook cardstock is usually 65 lb – 80 lb weight.
Can I punch more than one card at a time?
It is not recommended to use more than one layer at a time. It is also not recommended to punch folded cardstock. Damage to the punches is possible. The punching area is designed to be perfectly aligned. If cardstock thickness exceeds recommended weight the alignment may become off center. Therefore, damage to the punch may result. It is also not recommended to punch laminated cards.
If you are a higher volume user, it is recommended to punch 20-25 cards, and then let the punch rest. Increased friction can cause the prongs on the double post to heat up and swell, which may result in possible damage. The hole area and cutting posts are precisely aligned.
