Shane is working on the gallery in his spare time, of which he doesn't have a lot of.
I've tried to offer my help but nothing has come of it.

Why not, I think a lot of people used these Galleries for ideas for their own projects, Shane help is here in what ever form is required just ask mate  :)

No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!

borrowed this hole punch from work I was thinking of using a holesaw to cut holes for the big grommets on the commodore wiring loom but this was much easier and neater cuts a perfect hole with no sharp edges

Hey Phill, i have been looking at getting one of these. H&F have them for a good price, but also looking at a 10ton bench press, question is can you use or get the dies for the hole punch to work in the bench press, 1 tool 2 functions ?? also if i went the hole punch can you get a large range of hole sizes as an accessary or do the dies come in the standard sizes for grommets and so on ?? and finally what is the steel thickness limit on the punches, i normally work with 1mm and 1.2 mm sheet steal, but with my hand controls for the buggy i was working with 3 and 4mm flat bar.
