My version of the Bob Essex MIDster Punch. I made a motor driven punch head instead of a solenoid. A scrap removal system pulls the "confetti" through the lower punch arm with a small muffin fan and deposits it into a plastic box. It is mostly made from salvaged parts of photocopiers, printers, and typewriters. The linear bearings are ball bearing drawer slides.

  • where's the monkey?

  • The monkey is operating the camera!

  • are those shelf sliders underneath the punch? you rock!!!

  • They are stock ball bearing drawer slides, mounted sideways. I purchased them at a Home Improvement store.

  • I'm so jealous ... I have the MIDster plans here, but with two left hands and lack of time ... You surely have created a fine machine, nicely finished!

  • Thank you for the comments. I was the same way. I had the plans for a long time and finally decided to build it.

  • IS there a piano to play and then it hooks up?

  • Not in this video?

  • Sweet. A video of the song being played right after would be pretty sweet too.

  • Your punch seems to work great.

    I'm working on a multi-punch system, and thinking about buying Bob's plans just for the information contained within.

    The punch is on the back burner until my organ is finished.
