Here's a sampling of what our amazing customers are saying about the Crop-A-Dile Eyelet and Snap Punch Tool:
I love this product!
"I actually punched a hole through a CD! With my arthritis, I never thought I could use a tool like this one! I am amazed at what the Crop-o-Dile can cut through! On each side of the handles, they have a 1/8" hole cutter and a 3/8" hole cutter. They have even made it so you can adjust the depth of your hole punch for making all sides even. (I figured that out on a video on YouTube!) Then, setting the eyelets is quite easy, however, I really like the large eyelets versus the smaller simply because it is more comfortable with my fingers! I have used the Crop-o-Dile more recently to make holes in defective CD's so that I can make mini-scrapbooks out of them! Cutting through them was a snap. Some things are better done within the domain of a paper sack so that the pieces don't fly out at you or your eyes, so just be careful! I also used it to add an extra two or three holes for my leather purse. Couldn't have been happier to cinch that bag up! I make the little Post It! noteholders and use it to punch the small eyelets in them to put ribbon through. Beautiful, soft, and gentle on my hands with very little exertion on my part. What a wonderful product. I forgot to mention that it is also very quiet!" - Keleia
The most awesome tool
"I had so many eyelets and just hated them. I could never get them to set right, so I never used them. They just set around. Then I have seen the Crop-a-Dile and thought, hhmmmm, maybe it will work, but I didn't buy it. Then I need a new paper punch and thought, hmmm, that will do both things and different sizes. So I finally ordered it from scrapbook.com and was so excited when the UPS man drove up. I was like a little kid at Christmas time. It is the most awesome tool. I am now able to do eyelets and snaps easily. I am so glad I finally bought it. Thanks for the awesome tool." -lilmrmaid

i actually own three different sizes of those fiskars springy eyelet setters that sound like you are punching into concrete. my sister-in-law just got a cropadile and i'm wildly jealous now that i've gotten a chance to try it out! it's so smooth and so easy to use- the tool does all the work for you. there's no need for muscle, you don't have to squeeze terribly hard. it's perfect for anyone who has a touch of arthritis. the only drawback is that it only works on the outer edges. you can't on the inside middles of pages.

I first spotted the pink Crop-a-dile sticking out of the tote bag of the woman sitting next to me at a CKC class. The little pink monster was so cute I just had to hold it (the Crop-a-dile, not the woman). My fellow cropper saw me checking it out and she offered to demo it for me. She was smiling like a proud mommy as she set some eyelets and punched some holes through small piles of cardstock. I was using the Making Memories eyelet setter and punch, but that was so last week – I HAD to have the Crop-a-Dile. When the package arrived, I dropped everything and carried it directly my crop area, tore open the box and fumbled it in my clumsy hands. I tried to use it before reading the directions and could not get eyelets to set correctly. Step away from the tool. After reviewing the guidelines for setting the tool correctly I had better luck. The eyelets didn't split nice and evenly in the back of the page. I was disappointed. Then I tried setting a large football brad and it bent it all over the place. Grrrr. I then started punching holes in anything I could find to see if it really could live up to the hype. It did punch smoothly through small piles of cardstock, CD's, plastic, a soup can, leather and a piece of rubber that was hanging off the treadmill. I do use the Crop-a-dile to punch holes, but I strongly prefer the Making Memories tool for setting eyelets. If the Crop-a-dile isn't set up exactly right, it smashes, not sets, the eyelet and tears your page. I even knicked off a piece of the rubber cube, with an eyelet mind you, while trying to set it into a page. I know there are many fans of this tool out there, but for setting eyelets, I'm not one of them.
There's been a lot of buzz about this tool and rightly so. It can do things that the post eyelet setter and hand grip-style setters can't do but I don't think it's the only tool to use for eyelet setting. I've had a difficult time setting decorative eyelets with it. If you want to understand what each of the eyelet setters do and how they work there's an article in the Resources Center that will help you.

Pros: The Crop-a-dile does stand up to the hype of being able to go through anything. The best part of mine is the fact that it punches holes so cleanly and precisely compared to my other setting tools. Another plus is that you have to use surprisingly little pressure to hole-punch or set eyelets and of course, no noise. Plus I have to admit, when I am able to use it I still get excited. It is a neat tool just to be able to use and its so much quicker and easier than other tools.
Cons: The hole-punch and eyelet setter are only 1 inch deep. If you don’t measure something properly, or are just eyeballing where you would like your eyelet to go, often I find myself millimetres away from being able to use the crop-a-dile and then I am forced to bring out my eyelet setter and hole-puncher instead. One thing I also dislike is sometimes I have to use both hands to use it and since all your work is done in the air and not on a mat, your objects can start moving everywhere causing you to have to stop and place everything again. Plus, maybe it’s just me, but when I tried to set my fancy star eyelets, the crop-a-dile smashed them. I tried two different settings just in case I had the wrong one for the top and it still happened.
Overall I would recommend this tool, but make sure that you buy another eyelet setter first so that you can set eyelets everywhere.

i LOVE LOVE LOVE my crop-a-dile... it was the best gift i got all year!!!!!!! i have used it several times now and am looking for projects i can do just so i can use my new best friend. it is easy to use and best of all quiet. no more banging of that little hammer! it is very comfortable and punches through anything like butter!
everyone needs one of these. they are not expensive and worth 10 times what you will pay! i would suggest also getting the little box it resides in because it comes with tons of brads in 8 colors. it is a great start to a new technique.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE TOY OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!

I had the old crop a dile tool, and I guess what, sometimes I could not figure it out, I had the hole punching part down, but always got confused, this tool is color coded, and numbered so you never have to guess what little square part goes with which little flattening part. Who knew it could be so easy, now I'm loving the tool and working more with it. The other type always intimidated me, but this one is more user friendly.
I absolutely LOVE this new Crop-A_Dile tool. The new smaller handle fits perfectly in my small hands. It also locks close, and the cubes are replaceable! Awesome new improvements! A must have for anyone setting eyelets all the time like myself! Big thanks!
Love the new crop-a-dile with the new lock and new cubes that make it easy to match up the cubes. Keep up the good work at both WE R MEMORY KEEPERS & SCRAPBOOK.COM

Do any of the Cropadiles have a viewing hole or guide so that you can see where you are punching a hole?

Unfortunately, there is not a viewing hole or guide for the punched hole placement. You will have to eye it.

Can I use the crop a dile on fabric? As well as the corresponding eyelets? Thanks
