Default Help! Jumbo eyelets!

So, I bought these really cool super jumbo eyelets at Archiver's a while ago...and last night went to use them. aaaack, my cropadile does not have a big enough setting. These babies are a full 1/4" wide, and when I tried using the "oversized eyelet" setting on the CAD, it just mooshed the back inwards instead of flaring it outwards, and distorted the whole eyelet. I also have the Making Memories setter, and that one does not have a large enough cone, either!
What do you ladies use to set the superjumbo eyelets??
TIA!

I'm wondering if you might need a grommet setter (I think I saw those there giggle) - might need to try a sewing department.

Thanks for the ideas, off to shop :mrgreen: DH actually suggested the sewing dept, I just wanted to see if anyone had actually used anything they knew would work!
Thanks!

Just a report: that worked (the sewing dept)! WalMart had just the cones (to use with a hammer) for a $1 JoAnn had a fancy "eyelet plier" but it was $22...for the amount I have, I'll try the $1 one!
Thanks again for the ideas!
