so today, i went to michael's and got myself (with a gift card, woot... hooray for free!) a pretty little screw punch!
i'm hoping to use this to make exposed binding books and the like :) part of my experimentation for the year! i'd like to start with the secret belgian binding, following this tutorial. it doesn't look too awful difficult! :D
i'd also like a better awl and a larger self-healing mat, but those may need to wait for the moment. same for my jewelry tools, they're lookin a little shabby, so i think i need to upgrade my cutters at least. i've heard lindstrom is the best, but they're a tad pricey... not too bad, but i'll think about it for a bit! ;)

Aren't these hole punchers such nifty tools?! I don't know what I'd do without mine!
i'm looking forward to using mine and stuff! :D i tested it on my bookboard and i think it'll go through, so yay!
