thanx for that video but LOL

i had to turn the volume up heaps to hear what you were saying and then the hammering was SOO LOUD!

[DeadChickenHat]

@scarlet6 Yes, sorry about that. I should fit a volume control on my hammer, perhaps! :-)

[DeadChickenHat]

DOES THIS WORK ON EXTRA LONG EYELETS OR LONG EYELETS

[duaneafields]

Just woke the house up at 2:15, damn, so turn down your full blast speakers beforehand. Good video.

@fayrowland No i mean for grommets i thought theese were grommets. Thank you!

@SteveieRay98

Yes, you can, but DON'T! You'll end up with far too large a hole and the eyelet will pull out under strain. It is important to *poke* the hole, not cut it.

[SteveieRay98]

you know, you can use the applicator as a hole puncher

[UrAKitty2010]

Thank you, exactly what I needed. I definitely wasted some time trying it by cutting a hole and having the eyelet come right out again.
