In the past years, we've punched holes through some 40 metres of manuals!



Our electrical punch packed in on us a week ago after seven years of sterling service, and after investigating the cost of repairs it proved more cost effective for us to replace it with a brand new unit.



A few small changes in the design of the new unit, but it's another heavyweight (i.e. almost impossible to pick up) piece of machinery that should see us through into the next decade.
