I have cut 28 mil (0. 5 mm) copper sheet all of the time. Easy to handle 7 mm) sheet. There is not much accuracy in 40 mil (1 mm) since the jaws are very wide open. I think most copper flat washers will be 1 or 2 microns thick instead. You should not have any problems with me since I am 7 mm. I can try a few washers for you if you send me a few. Please let me know your address so I can send it to you.
In the past, I have cut leather with my tool and had great success just from looking at the holes, they are very precise, while there are some faint pressure marks on the leather.

I've been using this for years and it saves a great deal of time. Having to drill a lot on 16 gauge steel is an ongoing problem for me, as I make plate armour out of this heavy steel. Therefore, I've destroyed several drill bits. A hole punch like this will have you done within 30 seconds, turning jobs that take 20 minutes Punched holes are clean, so drilling won't need to be cleaned up afterward! It has a substantial weight to it and does not feel cheap at all. Despite its age, it was in pristine condition and was It is impossible to punch through 16 gauge metal by hand, but if your workpiece is clamped down in a vice and supported by a solid bench or anvil, it works as advertised. Make it easier to work by attaching a pipe to the handle. The process of making a slot by drilling multiple holes at the same time works flawlessly and can even eradicate burrs. As the punch is only about 2 inches deep, I will still need to use a drill to drill anything deeper than that, but for 90% of my needs, the punch will cover the needs. I really like it because it saves me a lot of time as well as cut down on noise. You will find this punch to be so much more efficient and faster than a drill after just a few uses. Not having bought one sooner makes me regret not doing so.
, and they can be used for the work very easily. It would be nice if the handles were a little longer. Please see https//www. nbsp My son tried punching holes through a light gauge stud 18 ga and the work was very easy for him. My only wish is that the handles were a little longer to give a better level of comfort.
I have not tried it out with 16 gage material yet, but since it is simple to use a self tapper screw instead for my particular application, I will try it out soon.
While I was a kid, one of these metal punches was used to punch holes with when I worked with my uncle. The tool was used to punch holes in the edges of aluminum storm windows in order to attach them to the cover of the regular window on our this tool to punch holes in some heavy gauge steel that is 4" wide and 10 feet long. I used it to fill the gap between the porch roof and main roof where it meets. I was able to punch holes easily, and it has a variety of hole sizes to choose from. The fact that this is well made ensures you will never have to buy a similar item again, unless someone steals it.
The quality of the product is good. Neither the Neiko nor its function can be compared with any other product. I would appreciate your input. A statement that Grizzly products in general or Chinese products in particular are not indictments The two cases are not comparable in this case.
In order to recreate the aviators desk from RH, I ordered this punch to punch holes of 3/16" in two layers of 24 gauge zinc sheet metal. The only thing I would suggest they add is springs to rebound the handle back open for you.
I've had no problems with thinner gauge backs - The plates were cut with a saw. The saw blade is not strong enough to handle larger carpentry panel saws, but you can use it if you're restoring, making, or reusing The back saw does an excellent job of handling a gents saw, dovetail saw, or other back saw used in furniture joinery. With their small points, dies can easily locate the dimple left by the machinist who used a transfer punch to mark the screw location. With a reach of about two inches, most backsaws should be able to use it. Plate stays perfectly flat and does not cause any burrs or scratches. Neiko punches are quality tools, not cheap imports. I recommend just using a little light oil on the die and you should be able to get a lifetime out of this tool.
) No There is one thing that is astounding about the holes how perfectly clean they As far as I can tell, there are no burrs anywhere. I even cut clean holes in pennies with it! It even cuts cleaner holes than the professional one I had cut in the blank when I got the blanks! I only wish it could punch holes in stainless steel that is thin.
This was a very good price. An excellent tool cast by a taiwanese company, a quality build that you'd expect from a company of that heritage. Punched 16 gauge when I was able to. The metal galv has a weight of 070. This is material for fabrication. My method of gradually punching through the clip involved using the edge of a table and trying to bear into the tool. It took a lot of grunt power to push the tool but it did it with no problem. This is a not very good stop to set the depth, but it will do the job. In general, the case is solid. The female die at the bottom is a bit loose, however. Perhaps you should wrap some teflon tape around the bottom die to strengthen its grip. Honestly, I was not sure whether I should choose the 5 or 4 The price for the product is affordable and shipping is fast, so I give it a 5. If you are a professional and plan to use it everyday for hours on sheet metal, you might opt for the Roper Whitney, but it is almost a copy of the Roper Whitney 5 Jr for less than half the price. The dies seem Using the 1/4" and 1/8" die sets, I made the card. Metal is cut like butter when the smaller size punches are used. After using the tool for more than a few times, I will do a review after more than a few weeks. It was only around 10 days that I had the tool. Since this tool is nearly an exact copy of Roper Whitney, their 50 year old patent has expired, so the negative reviews are likely.
