I have a flypress with an arbour & dieholder that take (as far as I can determine) Buffalo punches and dies - the dies are 2" diameter by 1" thick, and the punches are flanged at the top to 1.375". The local toolmaker is reasonable for circular punches and dies but slots and rectangles are extortionate. Is there any good surplus trader who deals in these things (and doesn't mind posting overseas) ?. cheers Mike

It seems odd that someone would have surplus punch/die sets that are correct for your application. Perhaps it's different when buying for fly presses and ironworkers but in standard die building, there really aren't *standard* sizes as they vary by material, material thickness, part specification, etc.
