Punch it!August 23, 2001 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Malco 1/8" Ceiling Grid Punch, is one of the most vital tools in the T-Bar Ceiling trade. Unfortuanatly its not a commonly used brand within the trade. But as tradesmen become more familiar with this particular model and maker, they will share my sentiments when I say that is truly a neccesity! I gave the CGP a four and not a five star rating, because it still has a flaw or 2. For example the throat should be about an inch deeper, for angled punches. Also, the rubber grips have a tendency to slide off after a couple of uses, so more adhesive should be applied during manufacturing. Although the Punch provides sufficient leverage, due to their well designed spring loaded handles, another 1 to 2 inches wouldnt be a bad idea for the sometimes needed two handed operation.
Over all Malco has produced a Ceiling Grip Punch that is far superior to any other I have seen or used!
