Probably the Crop o dile. I use it in and out of the craft room.

The circle cutter.
Though I have had a love-hate relationship with it (figured out really thin paper works best). It was trial and error figuring out how to work it.
I love the final product >> bigger circle frames and circle frames with a wider border (for alphabet letters).

Versatility of the Crop a Dile.
I don't have anything else by them.

Hard to pick a favorite. I like all of the WRMK tools that I have. The ones I use the most are probably my Corner Chomper and the Multi Punch.

I have to agree about the corner chomper.. I use that quite often. I have two diff ones. But I like my glass mat too. Got it at Tuesday Morning for I think $25. A lot cheaper than the glassboard one.

The corner chomper gets used all the time, it was a great purchase. I also use the CropADile a lot. I want the Multi Punch. I also love my WMRK paper trays, and the project cart.

The only one I think I own by them is the thing to fold envelopes. I'm not much of a tool person apparently. I can't actually find it in my stuff, and it doesn't look like the pictures online, so the one I have might be from a different company.

I love the final product >> bigger circle frames and circle frames with a wider border (for alphabet letters). I have a circle cutter that I inherited from my mom, still in the package but it is the Martha Stewart brand. I just pulled it out and going to see how it works. I am going to assume they are probably similar. |

I have the multi hole punch and the other one that pushes little confetti shapes. Love them. The cart with the trays is really handy, too.

I love the envelope making tool. I've made hundreds of envelopes using it. If it somehow broke, I'd buy another one straight away.

We R Memory score and pleat board was a favorite. It simplified so many things when I was making spines for junk journals or rosettes.
CropADile has been good beyond scrapping.

I love my We R scoring boards. I just purchased the We R poppers scoring board and I plan to make Christmas poppers for my kids' Christmas stockings this year. I love my We R tools!

Power punch, cropadile or the corner punches. I have found anything plastic based to be poorly built and just does not last. My list of fails includes envelope punch board, tag punch board, fuse tool, paper trimmer. I also have the stacking trays and punch board storage which are not broken but they are SO janky.

The only one I still have is the scoring pad. The others I’d accumulated over the years just weren’t being used and were taking up valuable real estate so I gave them away. I had the envelope maker, the gift bag maker, the Corner Chomper, and Crop-A-Dile.
Years ago I had the original giant Crop-A-Dile from when we needed to set eyelets on our pages.

I bought this from Amazon France for a ridiculously low price during some Prime member sale and thought it wouldn't be much money down the drain if I didn't end up liking it. It's actually wonderful. You can make your own greeting cards any size and easily make an envelope that fits just right. |

I have my eye on a few things.. I keep debating between a few things.. Which one/s did you end up with? How are you liking them? I use ALL the tools I have from them, constantly: The mini guillotine paper trimmer The frame punch board The book binding guide tool 2 crop-a-diles (one round hole punch and one mushroom / disc punch for planners) I couldn't pick a favorite! Wouldn't want to be without any of them. |

Hands down, the Crop O Dile is my favorite, followed by the Scoring Board or whatever it's called. I have the envelope making thingy and have yet to use it.

Wouldn't want to be without any of them. I ended up getting the Crop-a-Dile eyelet setter/hold punch one. I have used it a couple of times so far is that my eyelets are not setting right.. they are bending or not setting correctly and ending up weird. So I need to practice with it I guess. I do have the envelope maker and have used that a few times. I'm still eyeballing the scorer thing... but haven't pulled the trigger. |

I wonder if there's a video you could watch on how to do it? I remember I used to ruin substantial numbers of eyelets, too (but not with We R Tools). |

Love my corner chomper - while it doesn't make the cleanest cuts it will go through even thick chipboard, which few other tools can manage. I also have the envelope punch board and it's great. Does what it's supposed to do and does it well.

Crop-o-dile, although I only use it to punch holes now (I'm looking at you leather belts...) and rarely to set an eyelet.
Also love both the corner chompers to have options for how big a corner I want.
Envelope/box/bow board - yes, it works, but I don't need it often.

I have several of their tools. The 3 I use the most (at least weekly) and are within arms reach:
Corner Rounder (I love that there are 3 options)
Crop a dile - this is such a multipurpose tool. I’ve punch holes in belts and all sorts of things with this tool!
Corner Chomper
Next - just depends on the project, but I have used these 3 multiple times and are easily accessible.
All in one scrapbooking tool - includes scoring tool which I use the most
Multi-punch
Fuse tool
Rarely use
Banner tool
Bought and unopened
Foil Quill - just bought
Binding kit

Also love both the corner chompers to have options for how big a corner I want. Envelope/box/bow board - yes, it works, but I don't need it often. I've seen the Crop-a-diles that come with all the eyelets, and I've wondered whether they are eyelet setters, or punches, or what? So let me get this straight. From your post, I'm inferring that it's a punch. Plus it sets eyelets, too? Sounds like a really cool tool. |

From your post, I'm inferring that it's a punch. Plus it sets eyelets, too? Sounds like a really cool tool. Yes! The crop-o-dile first punches the hole that you put your eyelet thru, and then has a "press" which sets your eyelet (and there are MANY size combinations that you have to figure out which one works for each eyelet size) The hole punches are far stronger and sharper than a regular hole punch, so you can go through cardboards/chipboards and leather and fabric. Everyone in my house knows where it is  There are 2 sizes of holes - both are smaller circumference than my traditional hole punch. And they allow you to punch "deeper" onto a paper than a typical hole punch too, although it still stops at about 1". But the other cool feature that I have used, is you can set a stopper to set the depth you are pushing onto the paper so that you punch at the same depth into your page each time (like 1/4" from the edge, 1/2" from the edge...) |

I wonder if there's a video you could watch on how to do it?
