I am looking for a set like the one shown in the photo on this page below. But. This guy mentioned putting sections of brass tubing that has been sharpened with a grinder and/or dremel tool, and drilling them out. I have a 1/2” chuck sized drill press, and with a wooden backing, I bet the drilling would be MUCH cleaner than the punching with a hammer.. Right???? Or like I said, if anybody has a better idea, I’m be grateful. Thanks again, Chuck

Can anybody tell me where to buy a good set of Foam Popper head punches?? I have been using brass spent gun cartridge shells, but even using a wooden backing, they dull pretty quickly. Or, does anybody have a stainless steel (or whatever they are made of) cpl of these that you’d sell me?? I need them in, say a 1/4”, 3/8”, or 7/16” diameter. or 8,9, and 10 mm would be just as good. Thanks, Chuck ORRRRRR!!!! Can somebody tell me if I’m doing something wrong that is dulling the brass shells after about 8-10 popper heads to the point that they start just “tearing” the foam, instead of punching it cleanly???? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
