Juice780 10 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 (edited) Has anyone tried this with a manual punch press? I know where I can have some dies made but not sure what would be the best type of press to use. I want to use something manual and fairly cheap. Anyone done anything like this?

mark poulson 2,315 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 I have never tried a punch press. I cut mine with Wiss tin snips, and finish shape them with sand paper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be very interested to hear how this works. I think the material might be a bit too brittle to use a punch press. I'm very interested in getting some .060 or .080 CB lips instead of just the .031 that are commercially available... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Juice780 10 Posted January 13 Author Report Share Posted January 13 I know ones that are being sold on lure parts online and other type of websites are using does to punch out the lips. I’m thinking a hand one will work. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's lexan, not cb. Completely different. No way in hell I'd use a router for cb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
