Abstract
A punching and binding machine used to bind sheets to discs. The machine may include a lever with a first arm, a second arm, and a third arm. Each arm may be pivotally and slidably connected to minimize the force required by a user to punch cutouts in a stack of sheets. The lever may include a flipper connected to a binding member to actuate punching and binding simultaneously.
