RBD Report post Posted 15 hours ago I am looking for recommendations for larger hole punches. I find the Tandy multi head punch kit quite adequate for holes up to 8mm, but haven’t found good punches for larger holes. I’ve bought an inexpensive punch set from Princess Auto (similar to harbour freight, I think, in the US?)and tried sharpening them with mixed results. I like the ‘midi’ set from Boehm, but the punch sizes only go to 20mm, and the maxi set is way out of my price range. I am just a hobbyist, so price is a factor in my choice. Any advice would be appreciated. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted 14 hours ago I would say to look for old second-hand Gasket punches. They go up to at least 3" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUP Report post Posted 13 hours ago (edited) If you don't mind sharpening the punches, try Amazon. I saw a set going up to 50-55mm. Temu has punches as well as die templates. The prices are reasonable enough that if they turn out bad, it does not pinch. Many of the Temu items are surprisingly good too.
