Title: Metal Punches / cutting
Post by: guest27 on September 21, 2008, 08:49:15 AM

Hi All

Years ago I bought (for a company not me) a load of sheet cutters, they were a three piece affair, with a male and female cutter and a bolt.  You drilled the centre of the hole and put one part of the punch either side, ran the bolt through (probably a machine screw really) and tightened it all up, cutting a disk from the metal and leaving it nice and flat.

What were they called? Q-somthing I think, and does anyone have access to them or similar, and can I borrow one of 40mm or so? - I have 4 holes to cut.

Thanks

R

Twisting throttles and swinging on the top of 20' high hedges with a hedge cutter, whilst the 'power rangers' perform stunts passed the house. Just like the IoM! ;D

My regards, Bill.
