A reinforcing hole punch, comprising:
- a reciprocating punch member supported for movement toward a base, the reciprocating punch member being actuated to form a hole within an object positioned on the base;
- a dispensing sleeve positioned about the punch member to define a space between an inner wall of the dispensing sleeve and the punch member in which reinforcing members are positioned for attachment to the object when the punch member is actuated to form the hole within the object.
A hole punch applying reinforcing members about a hole created when the hole punch is actuated to create the hole within an object, comprising:
- a reciprocating punch member supported for movement toward a base, the reciprocating punch member being actuated to form the hole within the object positioned on the base;
- a dispensing sleeve housing a plurality of reinforcing members, the dispensing sleeve being positioned about the reciprocating punch member such that the plurality of reinforcing members are positioned between the punch member and an inner wall of the dispensing sleeve,
- the dispensing sleeve also including an open end adjacent a distal end of the punch member whereby a reinforcing member is applied to the object as the punch member forms the hole within the object.
