4 out of 5 stars excellent to have on hand   August 18, 2007

I've used this kit for many years. It's not that hard to use IF you have a good set of tools (large hammer/heavy work table). it's just one of those things handy "men" ought to have around! Only downside I can see is that I haven't found a source for grommet refills yet.

I only used it once, it's difficult to figure out. Don't lose the directions.
