The Twirlit Paper Drill is a hollow steel drill with a sharp cutting edge operated by a simple thumb screw type bar under tremendous leverage and mounted on a solid cast iron base.
The average paper hole punch uses a lever mechanism to move one or more solid punches through paper. While fast and efficient it is limited to generally 20 to 50 sheets of paper at a time. And the more pieces of paper to be punched the more effort is required to punch it.
The beauty of the Twirlit is the hollow drill at the end of a screw operated by “twirling” the chrome plated bar. This design means you don’t have to apply constant pressure, the screw mechanism does that. The hollow drill mechanism means that the pressure from compressing the papers while drilling is released making the drilling easier than with a solid punch. The Twirlit has a half inch mouth and you can fill that to capacity with paper and you will be able to punch a hole through every single piece. To put that in perspective, a half inch of paper would convert to roughly 100 pieces of glossy 20 lb copier paper.
