Hi Joseph, Alan and everyone

First off, my apologies to you, Joseph for directing the response to Alan;
got mixed up as to who made the original post.

I uploaded some pix of the punches I have; maybe it'll help clarify how they
are designed.

The specs:

Large punch; Greenlee punch for 2" conduit fittings. Age and amount of use
unknown; bought at a pawnshop. Inside: 2.457 in. Punch is 2.426 at the
points where it enters die; 2.416 at center. Don't know if this is design
or "use flare."

Small round; 5/8" Pioneer chassis punch. Belonged to my late Dad, use
unknown but looks like it was, probably very little. Die is .6260" inside,
punch is .6253".

Square is 1.00" inside die; .986" punch. Also belonged to my Dad, looks to
be unused as the discoloration in the pix is cosmoline.

Hope this helps yall, all of my old machines are at least 40-50 years old
but I find a lot of useful info on this list even for my old manual
equipment. Wish I could contribute more.
