There has been some discussion lately on the subject of punching your
own rolls or books for organs.  This is something I am planning to do
in the near future, however I am not sure how to do the actual punching
of the holes.

I have used the "Midiboek" program to create templates for the book
music, but I need a method to do the actual punching.  I plan to
eventually build the Midster Punch designed by Bob Essex but in the
meantime I would like to make a couple of books.  Does anyone know of
a punch machine for sale or can anyone suggest a method for making the
holes short of cutting them out with an X-acto knife?
