That's a great idea. I make my pads myself also. But I use scissors. It's a pain in the butt. Now I'm giving this a try. Thanks for sharing Kez!

: My pleasure, mate. I'm really glad it can help. I used scissors for a bit until I saw these at the club. But then I saw Glenn Lucas's punches and wished I had bought those instead. Hope your staying warm brother, Cheers, kezza

Super helpful and Brother, you know I crack up at those whip sounds!

Thanks, mate! I giggle every time I make a mistake now, knowing that, haha. The funny thing is, I used to fix my mistakes like this, but now it's nice to find some humor in them. Cheers, brother!

I've made wad punches from old hole saws. I grind off the teeth and sharpen the edge at about 40 degrees. I have also threaded and welded a bolt into the hole saw where it fits the mandrel. Works a charm....saves a lot of money.

It's such a brilliant way of saving money and cutting your own discs. Thanks very much, mate. I’ll post an update soon.

Never thought of that. Gives me an idea. Going to try and cut mine with my laser 👍 cheers

Thanks Kerry, purchased a wad punch quite a while ago now for myself. Went to purchase another for my teacher and couldn’t find one anywhere in Oz. Will look at the Glenn Lucus ones now.

No dramas, mate. I'm really glad it helped. I don't think you could go wrong with Mr. Lucas' tools. He uses them on a regular basis and punches thousands of discs with them. I'm upset I didn't see them first. Cheers, mate.

Good info!

Hi KC... I caught the second video first..lol... Yes there's loads of prep work for a one man show...it can be tedious but its also essential for quality products...you always offer multiple choices in tools and techniques..and I believe that's important..otherwise we would all be right-handed..😁... Thank you for sharing your knowledge and journey...🌿🌿🌿

Plenty of prep work. It can get a bit full-on sometimes. I think it's crucial to suggest multiple ways of doing things because everyone has a different budget and access to products. My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers, Pam. Kezza

I looked up clingspor rolls of 4.5"x10m hook and loop paper, for 2" disks you can get 4x making your own.

I never thought about cutting down the sandpaper. I just use the large circles till they are no longer usable haha. this could be a game changer

For sure, a game changer, mate. Look up those Glenn Lucas ones though; that would be my recommendation. Cheers, mate. Kez.

What's your cost saving of say buying a pack of 2" discs vs making the same number?

@KerryCorney

Hey mate, on average, I can personally save around $86.94 per order (sorry mate, that was some late-night math). The amount saved depends on factors such as product quality, supplier choices, and order quantity (that's been my experience). It takes a bit of time to find reliable suppliers, but once I find a top-notch one, I'll do my best to negotiate a discount for the team👌 Cheers, mate! Kez
