ugh hooo!!! oops how did you do that

by Di Masters Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 13:08

Don't know your own strength!
How long have you had it? Too long to query a fault?

by Guest Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 14:02

Oh dear oh dear. What a shame. I have that very same punch and now I shall be frightened to use it.

by Guest Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 14:04

You must have been fairly heavy handed or something!!! Is it still reasonable in time to send it back?

by Guest Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 14:57

Ooooopppssssss! Very well made then Look what I've done!!!! Icon_wink

Aargh indeed, I would still be tempted to try and glue it back together reinforcing the underside with I don't know what as I'm such a tightwad.
I think It would be worth emailing a pic of it to fiskars and asking if they can supply another base, just to see what they say, you might get lucky like I did with my camera. If they laugh at you you've lost nothing.

You're not a tightwad - you are just living up to your nickname
and there's nothing wrong in that.

Aw thanks Steph, I am a bit though, I do try to fix the unfixable sometimes.

by **Lorraine** Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 20:42

Can't fix it. Too many tiny bits broken aswell. Crying or Very sad

I've had it ages but hardly used it.
I thought I might try punching through different cards and papers, my other one went through alright, but this one...Noooo. I DID press very hard though, lol.
It's in the bin now. Mr Green

SNAP!! and I don't mean the punch Mr Green

One of mine when I got it out of the draw last week was broken at the sides...martin said no way to fix it so it went in the bin. Maybe they too old now. !! But the punch I used on the unicorn card after bugging was one of these.

Lorraine, just had a thought, you could use the blade on clay.

by **Lorraine** Fri 19 Feb 2010 - 0:06

Oh, what an excellent idea, Jo. Mr Green

I'll have to root that bit out of the bin.

All not lost then. I am sure a new Martha Stewart would make you feel better, eh?

by cb Sun 21 Feb 2010 - 20:08

Oh dear. I've got paper stuck but never had that happen. I did get one of their embossing punches for 99p from the savers shop just before Christmas, a bargain I thought.
