Geeze, I just got around to looking at the link, because of this thread. I have NEVER done that before in my life!!! And, yes, I turn the tool over.
The sole purpose of using a 66 block for Cat-5e cable isn't to maintain the twists for a Cat-5e connection, so I don't plan on running my Cat-3 jumper wire in the same manner, which leaves a lot of chance to knick the wire you just fanned through the same holes and looped around the pin to punch down with the cutting blade pointed down.
(wheh, my head is spinning...) Anyway, maybe I'll try this for fun on my next 5e to 66 project. If I ever have one.

MooreTel, the links show the CAT-way of doing things.
Now, "In the day" cable under on 66-blocks was the factory wiring. The over method is for field installation.
There you go,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I've never seen the butterfly method, but it makes sense for CAT5 type installations. When I started to need eyeglasses to see the wire colors in the phone closet, I took that as a sign to retire from punch-down activites
