I have a Whitney punch for punching small round holes in sheet metal. Handier than a pocket on a shirt.
I build toys and models out of brass and occasionally need a small square hole, say 1/16 or 1/8 up to perhaps 3/8.
Punching it round and making it square with a file works but is sort of tedious. Being able to punch it square to begin with would be wicked handy. I'm aware of the Greenlee style square punches/knock-outs, but they're too big and WAY too expensive.
Does anybody make a square Whitney-style punch?
