The Big Bite sits neatly and solidly on the table top and is a user friendlier alternative to the hand held smaller Crop-A-Dile for Crafters who might have difficulty squeezing a one-hand operated punch.

I have much better luck and use it more often since I can rest it on the table and push down with one hand. 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. The Big Bite II really does open up tons of possibilities for embellishing all sorts of craft projects.I knew this was going to be good because of all the reviews, but I really didn't expect it to be THIS good. At the end of the day I imagine a scrapper or someone into altered / 3d projects is likely to use one more than most card-makers. When repeatedly punching holes with the Big Bite in a pattern, it is a little difficult to line up with precision. We R Memory Keepers has a great variety of designer and unique eyelets to give you lots of options with this setter.

The depth gauge demarcates the distances from the edge of the paper to which we’re going to drill up to 15,25 cm. it is still possible as you can see in the above photo where I stamped a backgrounder stamp and then embellished the design with eyelets. 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. There are markings on it for that reason, but as yet, I have not been able to figure it out without lots more effort than getting down to where the work is at my eye level.

I do still use eyelets - not every day, but from time to time, and especially on interactive cards and tags. Rotating setting blocks and action setter help you do what you want to do without fumbling around for loose pieces.I love this thing – it makes incorporating brads and eyelets into my scrapbook pages and cards soooo easy. It would seem that due to the weight of the Big Bite (being sturdy) and on a flat surface, aligning would be easier.
