This was a combination punch and drift under a 70 ton press. Safety Sally's keep your comments to yourself please. Kids don't try this at home.

Thanks guys, I think we were on number 30 there so things were going real smooth. The first day I think I did 15 in 5 hours, and by "did" I mean ruined. The second day I did the other 50 in 3 hours. Final count was 45 out 65 that were perfect, only a couple needed some tweaking.

Bruce that's a good idea LOL!

Saign, I am using coal dust mashed real small mixed with bar and chain oil it worked very well. The punch was H13 and lasted all the hammers with only a little bit of dressing.
