- To sharpen your blunt punches, punch through several sheets of kitchen foil.
- If your punch is sticking, try punching through wax paper.
- Test your new punches on scrap paper so that you don’t waste patterned paper.
- Temperature affects metal, heat will cause the metal in your punches to expand and jam. If this happens try placing your punch in the freezer for a few minutes.
- Always use your punch on a flat surface.
- Standing up while punching will give you more leverage.
