Cardboard Perforator

I make a lot of custom size boxes from large flat pieces of cardboard. Attached is a pic of the cardboard perforators I have been using for the past 7 years. Still work great. 

I am looking for something that might have a larger handle that would require less pressure from my hand/wrist.  Getting old sucks.....  No luck searching this morning. 

 

Not looking for the box resizer, I have one of those as well. 

 

Anyone have a lead on a box perforator?

Re: Cardboard Perforator

That is my office cat. She was a walkup stray. Hates the other house cats so we keep her separate. She has the garage and my office. Weird tho, she loves the heeler. Tolerates no other animals or humans but us. I have watched her chase the neighbor's dogs out of the yard.

There was another one on eBay 6-7 years ago that had a bigger wheel. Can't seem to locate now.

 

I found this one. HandyScore Scoring Tool Simply Make Your Own Box | eBay
