Fresh paper currency punches cleanly, though it comes at a price!

Stiffer card paper (but not too thick) works best  ;)

Hi Nick. No I haven’t punched holes but maybe in some paper- something easy thin. Both the older Gray Wilesco and the old Flieschmann were clogged with wood chips. The Wilesco was actually locking up due to undiscovered wood jamming the punch hole

Great show Tim !


Love those Fleischmann presses with their fake bolthead detailing, very realistic looking accessories.

A Saturday evening in the steam shop running in a new Jensen #75 and first run of my only Fleischman accessories. An old press and tiny line shaft.
Thanks for watching my videos!

And some reduction via spare pulley on a Wilesco press to slow the old girl down to a scale speed.
