acaron41120 Posted June 16, 2023 #1 Posted June 16, 2023 Just wondering if there is a tool maker that makes a tool similar to a punch that would cut the square holes in the gratings contained in kits. I don't want to create a new way of doing things but it would be nice to take the grating in the kits and be able to punch out the holes in the gratings rather than using a pin vise and swiss file to square the round hole. Thanks. Quote Allen Current Builds: Mayflower - 1:60; Golden Hind - 1:50 Past Builds: Marie Jeanne, Bluenose, Bluenose II, Oseberg, Roar Ege, Waiting to Build: Swift
Jack12477 Posted June 16, 2023 #2 Posted June 16, 2023 Did you look at @Chuck (SYREN) website. He has grating kits in different sizes along with an assembly jig. His have square holes in the grates. Very high quality and reasonably priced also.
