_The first thing you ought to do is ask yourself: What is the definition of punching? Answer: It's the production of holes against an external belt. Then, position yourself so as to have your weight on the punch, securing it; and then use a sharp blow of the hammer to DRAHVE it through._
Where do I buy a "tubasix"?
They're between the tuba4s and tuba8s.
aisle FAHVE in the hardware store
Put them holes in sets of fivah.
wow so funny and original never heard that one before
Rip I find my 9mm glock works great for larger pronged belts. My 22 revolver works great on smaller belts.
Of course for your audience I’ll say not to do it with the belt on.
@@stark_outdoors it would eliminate comments from the haters, so good thing you added that
@@stark_outdoors at very least, don't do it in the gym.
>Of course for your audience I’ll say not to do it with the belt on
joke's on you, they don't allow us to have guns here in prison
@@stark_outdoors did you learn that when you injured yourself?
I never thought rip would make this video. I figured his answer would be you need to gain weight. Start drinking a gallon of milk a day.
If you're needing to put extra holes in the belt, you're probably not drinking your milk like you should!
Did you watch to the end? He punched it on the long side to make it longer, not to make it shorter. So the trainee in question must be drinking plenty of milk.
Bigger belt holes are more useful in general than smaller belt holes
Let me save you all ten minutes. "Get a hole punch, hit it with a hammer" Done!
Point taken but for a lot of folks a quality belt is a good sized investment, a day's pay for many. And tbh I'm the type that would use the first nail or knife I could find and be surprised that it ruins the belt. I like these videos.
It sure does help! Since I’ve lost weight, my current belt is now too big, and now I know what to do. Thank you.
Rip, is that belt vegan?
It doesn't eat any meat so I guess, yes
the cow was certified vegan ✔
I used my drill ...took about a second..but a hole punch works..lol
This does work well too.
I'm so glad you made this video. The hole punch I bought at Staples really was not cutting it.
lmao nice pun pal 10/10 would read again
Can you do this for 1/2 inch hole spacing like trying to make a poineer cut belt?
Coach is such an optimist! I always add a new hole at the front of the belt!...:)
Thanks, ordered the punch today. Hopefully this works equally well on a dominion strength double ply belt.
So.......Rip.......How do YOU get the plug of leather out of the punch?
While this question seems to be directed at only Mr Rippetoe for anyone else with the same question:
The punch has a cutout on the side above the cutting surface. Successive plugs push their predecessors upward until they fall out of the cutout. It’s not a big deal because the punch widens as plugs get pushed up the cutting surface resulting in reduced friction as they climb.
Any thoughts on the SBD belt?
What did you do since I’m facing the same problem, I’ve lost weight so my belt doesn’t fit anymore. What did you do
Got an ATX 13mm that fits perfectly on the very skinny side of the belt, but i am planning on losing a little weight so ill be following your advice to a tee when the time comes. Thank you so much.
Only rip could educate and sound dirty at the same time 😅😂😂😂. That’s what she said
Prime point is "don't fuck it up" ~L~
Is it a pin or a prong? Prong sounds girthier.
Very frank. Thank you
I always use a heated nail it works fine
Rip, do you still recommend Best Belts too?
I do.. have had mine almost a decade and it’s a soldier
@7:07 } "I'd rather have it a little too big than a little too small." - That's what she said...
Do you burnish the holes at all? Or put anything on them?
Put me in comments from the haters
it's not just like that, you have a bar to clear* with your comment
* the bar is very low
@@fsmoura * but not too much if not it'll roll down your back
I've got a piece of tuba six here
Just use a garden rake its all the same
I’m practically in between a medium and a large belt, should I buy a larger belt and drive more holes in to make it smaller?
Larger belt
7:06 That's what she said.
very good advices
7:06 true
Why don’t the belts just come with a ton of holes
Man this is actually genius. Or at least make fewer sizes. I’m right between an xl and large and I don’t get why I’m having to punch more holes when they can make them with more holes.
Gh
That belt is garbage! Inzer forever baby!!!
I learned something here. Thanks
One could use measuring tape to align the hole.
Aren't lever belts easier to put on and also better? Lol more expensive right enough
I thought you were in Texas.?
Pull the belt snug and go around it with duct tape a few times.
pretty straight forward.
but Rip, i just drunk a mozzarella and found this weird white ball inside the packing, any ideas what to do with that?
thanks for helpful advice.
Drill.
Rip is so unfit that after tapping the punch several times he is loudly puffing and huffing (you can hear it). I think he should get of his high horse and do cardio.
