whinewine Report post Posted May 7, 2009 Can anyone tell me how this type of scalloped edge is achieved? I've seen articles on taking a standard round punch & grinding/cutting off half. (You'd need to watch so you don't ruin the temper). Also there are standard 1/2 round punches out there in various sizes. Tandy & other companies sell them. I know tandy sells Al Stohlman brand half-round punches in different sizes. It all depends on the size you need, so you can either buy or maybe you'll need to fabricate. russ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheTrooper Report post Posted May 7, 2009 Can anyone tell me how this type of scalloped edge is achieved? Hi Sal, maybe our user John Barton can jump in here, or you can even write him a PM ?!? He did a lot of this scallop edges in the past on his pool cue cases, as you can see here. Cheers, Marcel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sal Report post Posted May 7, 2009 Thank you. I didn't know the half round strap end punch came that small. I'm glad I joined this forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank Report post Posted May 7, 2009 I used the half-round punches when scalloping the edges of a cantle binding. They work fairly well. Unless they started making them again, I do not think Tandy is selling the Al Stohlman Half-round punches anymore. I asked about them and the store owner here said they were discontinued and he couldn't find any. Check with Weaver. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke Hatley Report post Posted May 7, 2009 The round drive punches can be used also... use a grinding wheel to grind off what you dont need. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hivemind Report post Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) Yeah I was gonna say I have up to a 1/2" drive punch that could be ground off to do that - and they're a TON cheaper to destroy than a belt end punch. Edited May 8, 2009 by hivemind Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
