I went to every hardware and craft store in my area and was not able to find a leather hole puncher. This tool did exactly what I needed it to do and it's so affordable. I'm very satisfied.

Ek Success PSPCR01C Corner Adorner Small Rounder Corner Punch Review

I tried a couple of similar scrapbook corner punches. Unfortunately none of them are perfect. With the Paper Shapers punch there is some wiggle room when you try to line up the paper, so it takes some practice to get a consistently clean corner without a little "step" in the paper at the edge of the corner. Fortunately this punch lets you turn it over to see exactly where the paper will be punched.
I was using this punch to round the corners of laminated photos, but after a few photos it stopped punching through and now only bends the corner and jams. I think the cutting die may be slightly bent. Maybe I was trying to use the punch for something it wasn't intended, but I don't think 5 mil laminated photos are particularly heavy duty. It still works for plain paper.
This punch lets you remove the plastic clip so you can punch the straight side of a piece of paper to make a scalloped edge, but to do this would be so tedious I don't know why anyone would choose this method over scalloped-edge scissors.
One other thing I wanted to point out: Another reviewer said this punch was the one to use for playing cards. However, the radius of this punch is 1/4", and the corner radius of standard playing cards is 1/8" (the same as a credit card corner). You can still use this punch for playing cards, but be aware the corners will be larger than a standard deck. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a consumer-grade scrapbooking corner rounder smaller than 1/4" (I found 1/8" punchers but they were much more expensive).
The other corner punch I tried and kept was the Aidox Angle 5mm Eater Corner Rounder Small. It has its own shortcomings (it struggles with a laminated photo and can't round very small pieces of paper), but it seemed to make consistent clean corners better than the Paper Shapers punch.

DYMO DateMark Electronic Date/Time Stamper (47002) Review

I like the convenience of this date printer.
I've wanted something that I could use to stamp groceries as I purchase them. Some items stay in the cabinet too long and I've wished I knew how old they really were, before I tried to use it, or toss it. A paper tape label maker would have been too expensive for that purpose. I think this will work out well.
I like to stamp invoices with the date I paid the bill so this will be perfect for that.
It's also convenient as a desk clock. I didn't understand why it had an alarm until I realized it was so folks could get rid of any clock they have on their desk and use this as a replacement.
I wish designers could design some better interfaces for electronic tools. It's a general complaint with most items like this though.
I would have preferred red ink and larger type. This is too small for me to read without good light, or my reading glasses. Just a touch larger and I'd be fine. I'd rather it be red so it would stand out more, and also a black or blue ink would show through the stamp if I stamped over it.
Since there is an ink roller I guess I could try to get the purple ink out of it and load it up with red. It would probably take quite a while to work the purple out of the roller but I might do it. Too bad they don't offer optional rollers in other colors.
It does what I want though.
It should really come with a tray to stand in. As it is, the letters are exposed on the bottom at all times. They are slightly recessed, but I'm sure I'd get some ink on the carpet if I were to drop it, and it probably will eventually pick up dust through the stamp opening.
I can't believe the Amazon price. I usually find Amazon to have the best prices. I was going to an Office Supply store anyway and thought I'd look at it before I ordered it. It was almost half the Amazon price at the store, and it wasn't on sale either.
