LOL. Even when we could buy them new for a couple of quid we all still used a pair of scissors instead, didn't we? Didn't we? OK, I did.

Yeah, hole punch here.
But I had a friend who had a disk notcher.
I have to admit that during those floppy ..er..um.. "archiving sessions" we had, the disk notcher was pretty nice to have.

Hole punch was great for a disk here or there, but 30+ in a night, the notcher came in handy..
But it was like $10 or something, and I'd rather have spent that on blank floppies...

..
for archiving..

Ah, so that's what a disk notcher does! I only have about 10 minutes' experience with 5.25" floppy disks.
