broken. It needs a replacement felt washer as the original has worn
down.

I was looking at these:

Do people reckon those would cut 1/8" thick felt with a hammer? Or could
I squeeze them in a vice?

I have no idea. The URL appears to be a "built" URL, which
becomes no longer valid when you exit the web site.

I tried it a second time a few seconds later and it came up. But like

Still a problem for me -- even after turning javascript on. :-(

An equivalent hollow punch (set) at Harbor Fright is

O.K. That kind you just hit with a hammer (wear safety glasses,
of course), and use a wooden block under it. Pine 2x4 would probably do
well for a few parts.

Good Luck,
