Tool for installing eyelets
As you know, scrapbooking is a pleasure that requires quite serious financial injections. This is also true of a more or less convenient tool for him. For example, the cost of a simple and reliable in use stapler for rivets-eyelets "Crop-a-Dile" starts from a mark of 40 cu. In exchange, the skilled worker can punch holes of 3 and 4.8 mm in diameter in paper, fabric, leather, CD-disks and even thin sheets of metal and plastic. More expensive "Crop-a-Dile" models allow you to install eyelets not only around the edges of the product, but also at a distance of 15 cm from them. But also to pay for this pleasure too it is necessary much - about 80 cu
A more democratic price, with a sufficiently high level of convenience, pleases the Kangaro eyelet installer, whose cost is at the level of $ 15. These tongs are designed to install eyelets with a diameter of 4 mm and are equipped with a ruler for measuring the distance to the edge of the sheet and hole punch. As the testimonies of the lucky owners of this tool say, it is very easy and convenient to use it.
For those who have only to dream about the purchase of Crop-a-Dile, one should pay attention to the tongs for the installation of Gamma buttons and eyelets. Thus, the HT-2 forceps are designed to install eyelets with a diameter of 4 mm, and the HT-1 forceps are designed for a diameter of 6 mm.

Working with them is not as convenient as with the Gamma forceps, but with certain skills, it does not cause much difficulty.
