A punch for making file tabs of 2 1/4" x 3/4"
P/N 68500
I had been considering getting a custom punch made several times, but never looked to see if one already existed commercially. Today, while doing a 5 minute peruse of the thrift store, there it was!
When you use as many tabbed index card dividers as I do, this can be incredibly useful. It’s just the right size for doing 1/3 cut tabs on 4″ x 6″ index cards.
Acquired at Acts Thrift Store on October 7, 2025 for $2.50.
@chrisaldrich oh this is cool, I didn’t know that a product like this existed
Cool set up in photo 3, and I never knew that type of punch existed.
@chrisaldrich I had no idea such a brilliant thing existed!
@bapsi You’re definitely not the only one. My comments box has been filling up. I’m expecting the versions on eBay to sell out this week. We R Memory Keepers makes a similar Tab Punch Board for about $25 that allows one to vary the length of the tab as well.
Okay I love this. And the typewriter setup. And the vintage file cabinets. Eeeek.
