JerseyFirefighter Report post Posted March 26, 2016 Looking to see if there's such a tool or punch that can taper a strap. I do a bunch of straps that would require a taper and would like consistent angles and speeding up the process. Below is an example that would be similar, however I dont leave such a large tail at the end to attach hardware. Id like to be able to set up 10-20 straps at a time and just hammer away with greater precision and consistency. After looking I assume they dont sell things like this. Is there a company that can make custom dies almost like clicker dies with a welded shaft to hammer like a regular strap end punch? Thanks in advance.

Bobby hdflame Report post Posted March 26, 2016 I know there's a place that makes templates out of laser cut plastic. Maybe someone will have an answer for you. I'd be interested to know too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pounder Report post Posted March 27, 2016 Try Texascustomdies.com, they advertise here as well, they can build you a die for your needs at a fair price with good turn around. You might have to sharpen the die to your liking. They claim very sharp but I did not find that to be totally accurate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
