Starrett for me to - I have both the std length and the long ones. I break so may 1/16 should buy them by dozen. I have used some cheaper 1/16 only since they break often.Who makes excellent punches and where can I get them?
I feel better after reading this thread. I’m not the only one that breaks a lot of 1/16 punches. Kind of like small decapping pins.Did anyone mention Starrett?Get the set and 2 or 3 of the smaller ones because they will break and you can regrind them into specific tools, AND still have a stock 1/16 one.
Wonder if Mr. Porter would be interested in something like that........Somebody should make a collet punch that takes dowel pins. Easy to replace and cheap to have in bulk
