Members Old dude Posted October 26, 2012 Members Report Posted October 26, 2012 Does anyone know where I can purchase an oblong punch small enough to punch holes for the buckle? I have th rotary hole punch as well as single punches. I just like the look of the oblong hole. Thanks Quote
Members HellfireJack Posted October 26, 2012 Members Report Posted October 26, 2012 Tandy or Springfield carry them. Quote
Members Old dude Posted October 26, 2012 Author Members Report Posted October 26, 2012 Heifirejack...the smallest oblong punch Tandy & Springfield carry is 1/2". I think this is too large for a belt buckle hole. I could always be wrong; God knows, I've been wrong before in my 66 years....at least twice that is. : ) Quote

electrathon Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 Electrathon....thank you for responding; however, I am looking for an oblong punch. I have several round punches. The one I posted is oval, not round. It definatly is not as sloted as the one in the picture above but depending on the leather thickness will work far better than an round punch. Quote
Members WinterBear Posted October 26, 2012 Members Report Posted October 26, 2012 http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/search/searchresults/3005-00.aspx Tandy has an oval punch set. Quote
Chief31794 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 Tandy and Springfield carry a set of oval punches, they are used for belt holes. They range from extremely small to about 1/4". Oblong punches are larger. The tandy set is pictured here. Chief Quote

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted October 27, 2012 Contributing Member Report Posted October 27, 2012 http://springfieldle...32"25y,Havanna/ Springfield has them ..."Available in 1/8" increments from 1/4" up to 2". Since SLC is a Tandy distributor, Tandy may also have them, but I haven't checked. Quote
