Re: Where to get a 5.25 " side 2 disk notcher

["Phil Abel" <phil_nonospam_abel@nonospam_prodigy_nonospam.net>]

I have a red plastic disk notcher made by Kraft (the joystick Kraft not the
velveeta Kraft) which works like a charm, but I always used to use a hole
puncher before I acquired that product.  When you're as obsessive compulsive
as me, man you gotta have the perfectly square notch, the rounded hole punch
notch just won't cut it.  Nice to know it still has some intrinsic value per
ebay.
