[@TaikiBansei]

Anna, if you ever check this, a random staranger you helped from Algeria that is in north of Africa Thank you so so so so much You saved my life with this great to of yours

[@MrsBrimbles]

Amazing!

[@louismorgan9726]

as soon as you said, take the bottom off the hole punch i was like OHHHHHHH DUH!!! ive been spending hours poking holes haha thank you!

[@Zaccaroism]

10 years and still saving time for people, most precious material we all have. Thank you for this!

[@anareade3534]

This is so obvious but it never occurred to me to do this. Thank you so much!

[@geoff-elleetherton-rogers7599]

Thanks so much! You just saved me about £15 nnot needing to buy a special hole punch 🙂

[@gayatrigarud2308]

Taking off the bottom of the punching machine never came to my mind...Thanks a lot

[@melissaforfitt]

Thank you so much for doing this video! I'm just getting into Filofaxing, and really didn't want to spend around £20 on a hole punch! This is a great technique :)

[@peaclarke]

This is a game changer for me, I stopped making my own inserts out of frustration at punching the holes all over the place. I feel so stupid for never having thought to take the bottom off!!! I had just added a very expensive (for what it is) 6 hole punch to my amazon basket but just quickly checked here first so great tip thank you for saving me ££ and thanks for sharing, subscribed! x

[@nadezna1987]

THANK YOU!! I've been going crazy trying to find a special paper punch. Out of desperation I 'googled' how to do it and came across your video. This is such a simple and BRILLIANT solution!

[@woolkhan8017]

I just don't understand the 2 dislikes but anyhow... Managed to organize an A5 filofax with no trouble at all. Its people like you who make life so wonderful. Im proud of myself and its all thanks to you. God bless you...

[@MrsBrimbles]

oh its ok not everyone likes everything x oh bless you thank you that is so sweet of you, I really hope you enjoy playing in your new filo x

[@smudgewhite55]

Genius! Thank you so much for posting this, I was really struggling with my own papers for my new Filofax and was about to give up and order ready-made ones - you've saved me loads of money!

[@SteveSmith-ct8vh]

A normal paper hole punch, such as a 2 hole punch should be able to punch through 2 sheets at a time. YMMV depending your hole punch, but it would save time over doing it 1 sheet at a time. If you're like me and time poor, I'd be looking at weighing up the costs of a heavy duty paper punch, over a single page page.

[@atlasvenu]

OH MY GOD! Even though this video is so old, it’s amazing. Thank you so so so much!! I can’t believe you can take the bottom off..

[@VeganOrganizer]

Thank you so much - this tutorial was a lifesaver last night when I was putting my Hobonichi into an A5 Domino! I don't know what I would have done without it.

[@katiecox8112]

This is smart and simple... great! I just got a new filofax, but never mind that, its just great to know that when I want to punch a hole in a specific place on a piece of paper I now can! I used to guess and it was never quite in the right place, but now is easy, thanks.

[@Kat-vh1pz]

Thank you so much!!! I was becoming stressed out looking for hole punches and was about to return to my spiral bound day designer until I came across this!!!

[@rhonda5288]

You have just changed my life and saved me some serious $$. Thank you, this was awesome.

[@Mishi33xCupcak33]

Why didn't I think of that. I used to do it back in school.

[@sentient_dinosaurplush]

Tip for people who don’t have a divider to work with: I downloaded a PNG of a filofax sheet that had the “holes” greyed out, put it into Word on a landscape page and made sure to make the sheet the full half size of the A4, and printed it (make sure to set your printer settings to “original size” or the equivalent so it doesn’t shrink the image; this would mess up the spacing and sizing of the dots). Then I punched the holes into this “filofax” sheet and used it as a template for the rest as shown in the video. I put it into the back of the folder so I can use it as a reference in the future too. Hope I explained this well enough

[@rosepop7997]

Thank you thank you thank you. Been struggling forever on this, what a champion

[@chronicfish]

thanks for this brilliant tutorial. Just a tip, I would possibly rename the title of this video, something along the lines of" How to punch 6 holes for your filofax paper with a two hole puncher", as I came across this video totally by fluke and it seems to be the only descent video out there. Just saying,..I think a lot of people would find this video useful :)

[@MrsBrimbles]

oh bless you thank you, I will do that x

[@thechinesetutoruk9172]

So glad you changed it, it came up straight away. Thank you for the great hack! Just got a planner and was thinking "oh no, not more expense!". Thanks again.

[@Nycqt13]

I could hug you! So simple and cleaver! You solved my problem from turning my papers into swiss cheese. Thanks so much for the great tip!

[@tjitskevandermaaten2022]

Thanx a lot! So simple...but I didn't think of it...the Filofax punches cost about 15 euro's in Holland. Happy I came across your video!

[@tjitskevandermaaten2022]

+EmprezD ik zag ze online. Als je Google op filofax perforator of organizer perforator zie je bovenin al een aantal staan. Groetjes Tjitske

[@tjitskevandermaaten2022]

Graag gedaan! En voor jou hetzelfde:)

[@addsilva26]

AWESOME video, very useful!!! Keep it the creativity.

[@MrsBrimbles]

Thanks a lot!

[@zlpalmer]

Brilliant! You are a saint! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS SIMPLE TIP. I was about to spend money on another hole puncher. I thank God for you.

[@MrsBrimbles]

[@jeancormac7155]

Oh wow. Now this I didn't think of at all. I've been scouring the internet looking for a punch. Thank you so much. So easy peasy.... Thanks so much for sharing

[@Shrianirban]

wonderful!! I have been looking around for a 6 hole punch not to find one. This really works. Thanks.

[@MrsBrimbles]

[@virginiafernandes336]

In Brazil we don't have 6 hole punchers and I was considering IMPORTING FROM THE US a 6 hole puncher... omg so simple thank you so much... you just saved me a lot of money

[@mercedestortosabarranco251]

Thank you very much for this tutorial!!!!!!! I didn't know I could do this so easily !!!!!!!!

[@meganturnbull6148]

Fantastic, you have just saved me $$ buying a 6 hole punch - awesome

[@MrsBrimbles]

Excellent! Just shows you don't need expensive stuff!

[@zoea2812]

This is brilliant. Really helped me out. I have been looking everywhere for a special hole punch lol. Now I know I can just get a standard one and save myself a lot of money

[@elainefirth1671]

so pleased I saw this. such a very good how to, in great detail

[@starjacky01]

So helpful thank you! I can honestly say I never thought of this! :)

[@iristhompson1871]

Wow thank you was just going to buy a 6 hole punch glad I looked saved me £14 x

[@poolahpot]

Thanks! And, Im sure you've heard it a million times....I LOVE LOVE LOVE your british accent!❤️❤️❤️

[@itstotallyezra]

I was stressing about buying prepunched paper, which was so expensive, and this was really clever!!!! Thanks :D

[@elenacala]

So brilliant! I love your creative mind! I wish my mind worked that way.

[@AnnaGingerJuice]

Even I don't understand how my mind works, it works in mysterious ways that is for sure lol!

[@MrsBrimbles]

I replied with the wrong account, ooops! Ginger Juice is still me though, just my other channel!

[@Roytuhin]

you are a life saver...Thanks to my superwomen!! love from India!

[@meganturnbull6148]

I also punched a hole in some post it notes and put them at the front of my planner

[@MrsBrimbles]

That is a great idea!

[@anniebryan-hughes6458]

Thank you very much. I actually have a 6 hole puncher, but it doesn’t extend to desk size. I’ve made some terrible mistakes in trying to use it for desk size paper. Applying your method, it works perfectly and does 3 holes at once. I feel a bit stupid for not having thought of it myself.... but I ended up here by looking for a “desk size organiser 6 hole punch” to buy 🤓 I believe there is no such thing, but thanks to you, I DO NOT NEED ONE 😊😊😊 Splendid! Many thanks!

[@MrsBrimbles]

You're very welcome!

[@outinarizona]

i live in my single hole punch for the same. I also have this 2 punch and std 3 hole punch for others.

[@kathrynanderson7914]

Brilliant- well presented. Thanks . I am creating an art portfolio for my doodles and stuff. I am replacing the flimsy papers with cards in various colours. Hope to you tube you again. Kathryn

[@MrsBrimbles]

Glad it was helpful!

[@channelnolongerinuse1504]

Great video, when searching this I thought I was the only one who didn't have a Filofax whole punch, will definitely use this hack!

[@ua6523]

Thank you for OFFICIALLY SAVING MY BRAIN. HUGS!!!

[@huisun3987]

After punching 20 holes at an A5 paper with almost blind guess, I found this brilliant video. No need to invest in another punch hole! Thanks a lot!

[@MrsBrimbles]

Glad it helped!

[@TanjaSnyman]

Thank you, Saving me lots of money on new inserts.

[@mariaksimidis]

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I was struggling with the hole puncher to find the exact spot by drawing lines(but could I never managed it and wasted lots of paper :/ ) and I was even searching the internet to find a single-hole-puncher with a bigger hole. You saved me with this very simple but clever technique :) God bless you :) :*

[@kellydubberley5395]

Absolutely brilliant you are a lifesaver thank you so very very much

[@sabine0910]

This is brilliant - and so easy and obvious. Why haven't I come up with that idea :D???

[@coinchantal]

This is a great idea, I didnt think of this!

[@ajkeuropean]

[@bluegreenworld333]

[@cryssplummer5007]

sooooo easy .. just saved me a lot of money on either a hole punch I didnt need or templates I couldnt use

[@karenspencer7678]

I do that too, but alternate every 3 punches on the side of the hole punch so you don't wear out one side.

[@SuzanneGeorges]

Thanks a lot dear for uploading this. Really helped me out.

[@os2soliz]

If you're lining up the holes individually then use a single hole punch because it's a lot easier to manipulate.
