LETTER PUNCH GUIDE : aim the line and write everything straight! Punzonatura

[AB-SHOP]

Good morning everyone,

I show you my latest video: I built a simple jig for punching flat and round parts, in the now more or less advanced laser era I built something "old-style" which is based on a "needle viewfinder" and a metric row to decide the step between one letter/number and another;
a second viewfinder allows you to align the plate in the case of punching on a larger detail, with a hypothetical pre-traced line to align the letters/numbers, in this case it requires 2 external clamps for fixing.

The cursor also slides if the plate is pressed on the part to be punched, because it is slightly less thick in the guide area.
On the base of the support there is a plate which, when rotated 180 degrees, has a 45-degree V-shaped machining, to allow even round bars to be blocked and punched.

It's always a challenge until the final assembly and the test, because if it doesn't work it was all done for nothing, but on the other hand this is part of the game and a game that I'm very passionate about!!

Hope you like it,

Ciao !!
Alberto.
