You know, that's exactly what I was thinking. Most of these tools I give out will only be used a couple of times. If one of those is in an emergency, then they are worth the money. I'm just worried that some family member won't believe how well they work and decide to give them a try. Oops!

Can you imagine how much damage one of these could do in the hands of a teenager determined to vandalize all the cars in his neighborhood?
HF carries several of thiese punches. The brass colored one is thier most expensive and it has much more power that the other ones they sell. I'll use it on sheetmetal I'm putting on my barn to make a screw dimple and see how it holds up.
