BP1055 Punching Holes Part two of a five part series
by Uri Hofi
System two
Punch the hole again as deep as we can.
This time we do not turn around we go on from the same side on a suitable prichel hole of the anvil.
This way we have very sharp knife like rim around the hole and the steel is bent out of the flat dimension.
We have to hammer the steel and flatten. By this the hole is closing and get smaller.
I personally prefer the former BP1054.
We have to re punch again and clean the hole. One can see the piece of punch out.
If we want to make the hole biggler heat again and on the right prichel hole hammer the punch deeper according to the need.
