Punching Holes
There are basically two types of leather punches: the rotary punch and the hollow punch.
- Rotary punch
- The rotary punch looks like a regular paper hole punch, except that it has a "spur" on the end allowing the user to select the size of the hole to be made. This type of punch should not be used when making holes for lacing or sewing. It is more suited to punching holes for a belt, a wrist band, or a snap.
- Hollow punch
- A hollow punch looks a bit like a small pipe with a sharpened end. The sharpened end is held against the leather and the other end is then struck with a mallet. The leather should be backed by a piece of soft wood. A small leather disc is removed from the piece and goes up into the punch. The punch usually features a slot in the side so that these discs can be removed.
