I am just wondering if anyone out there got the odd 8mm punch and die suitable for 1/8" or 3.18 mm thick steel that is surplus to requirements.
A home made holster to suit the 38mm dies is now fitted to the fly press so looking for that size if possible.
I am going to make some simple and relatively light hairpin fencing and have the prospect of making a few hundred holes and thought a fly press and punch set up would be a lot faster then drilling.
Have tried a 10mm punch set up that can get through the steel with effort, so 8mm should be a bit easier. I have even looked at using silver steel and grinding the end before hardening, but would struggle with the die hole to get the correct rake/clearance.
If you can assist please let me know what costs nd if reasonable will bite you hands off!
Have been looking at ebay for a little while without success.
Cheers
Adrian
