Where: Holes can be punched pretty much anywhere you can get a punch to, which is why drive punches are much more versatile than a rotary punch; which can only reach a small way in from the edge. How: Unless you’re using a rotary punch, always place something underneath the leather you are punching through. With a rotary punch the process is almost the same. Beginner Advice for Shoemaking.
