Questions about this tool
When does the straight needle have an advantage?
Choose the straight binder's needle when the next hole is directly accessible and there is room to draw the thread through.
How do I check the fit of the eye?
Thread a needle and pull it through a spare punched section. The doubled thread at the eye needs clearance.
How should I compare two different curves?
Try the approach to the next hole on a spare cover. Check where the tip emerges and whether the curve clears the folded paper.
