The W-1 Hand Press by C.S. Osborne is a versatile tool that cuts holes for and installs line 24 snap fasteners (5/8" diameter button tops), brass and nickel spur grommets, vent grommets, curtain grommets and oversized plain grommets. It also cuts fabric and covers buttons for custom upholstery work. The W-1 Hand Press features a reinforced frame and handle, and needs to be bolted to a work surface via three, 3/16"-diameter screws (not included) for use. This easy-to-operate hand press is designed to apply the perfect amount of pressure to cut fabric and set your hardware with professional consistency. The tool is quite simple by design which speaks to its durability. But not having an adjustable spindle does mean that the amount of force which needs to be applied to the handle is greater for taller dies, like the curtain grommet dies. Watch the product videos to gauge effort and techniques for best operation.

The W-1 Hand Press arrives fully assembled and includes a nylon cutting block and an Allen wrench for securing bottom dies. All die sets are sold separately. Threads at the bottom of the spindle are 5/8"-20.

Note: Do not use the W-1 Hand Press to install stainless steel spur grommets. Only brass and nickel spur grommets are compatible with this hand press.
