Mechanics / Mech Engineering / Office supplies | | Dutch term or phrase: oogjestang | | In a list of tools, I come across this gem: "Oogjestang met 50 oogjes". I suppose this is one of those fancy punches that bankers use to fasten a contract together in the upper-left corner so that you only have to sign one page. Anybody know what it's called in plain 'ol English? |

| Grading comment "Eyelet pliers" Geniaal! I tried about 10 other ideas, but I never thought of this one. Google gives almost a 1000 hits, and they're exactly what I had in mind. I'm afraid I couldn't use your references though. When I click them, the original page can't be called up. Thanks for your help!
