    Default Fiskars Extra Large Hexagon Punch

    Just thought I would let anyone know that is interested in the paper punches for hexagons, that the extra large size Fiskars punch makes a 1" hexagon paper. I know I had a really hard time trying to figure out the sizes according to the descriptions on Amazon and some other sellers websites. I bought the extra large not really knowing if that's what I wanted, but it was perfect. I hope this helps anyone else who is thinking about buying a punch for a 1" hexie.

    I bought one at JAF when they were 60% off. There had been previous posts that I have read that gave this information. Great way to recycle junk mail as Geri B noted. Enjoy!!

    To clarify the Ex large punch makes hexagon that have 1" sides. 2" across the middle from point to point. That always confused me reading the descriptions so I bought all three sizes just to figure out what size was each. LOL
