When I first got my C64 (1999) I tried using a hole puncher.... It hurt my hand.. the peices flew all over, and then the stupid hole puncher bent out of shape because it really wasn't sufficient for punching disks.On Oct 31, 2004, at 9:41 AM, Howard R. Katz wrote:
Actually, the notchers did just the opposite. It allows you to use the backside of a 5.25" disk by cutting a write notch into the disk's sleeve. :)
I recall just using a hole punch for this; I don't think I ever had a backside that would not work!
About a month ago I got a regular disk notcher, it really does work a lot better, doesn't require near as much force, gets the notch alinged properly the first time, ever time, and isn't probalby going to bend ouf of shape like the wimpy hold puncher I was using.
