Nice. Greenlee punches are nice. Keep them clean and oiled and they'll last a long time. When your making holes, use a bit of oil on the pulling screw to keep it turning easy and prevent any galling.

No need when you have access to the hydraulic punches.  Wink

I wish. nope just have to make do with the old school. I wish I had a 2 1/2", thats what I need for the johnson 275 sockets for the 4-400's. they show up on ebay all the time. While I wait to get one I can build the HK rf deck. The modulator for that is already made n I think I'll keep whats there.

that will do 400+ input.
