I lost one of the punches.
I have no clue where it went.

I lost the 6th one from the left.
It is the thin punch with a long untapered shaft.

Can anyone tell me where I can buy this separately?

Uh, the whole set is $14. At that price I would just guy a whole new set. (well, i would not buy THAT set, but you get my point.)

Just google/ebay/amazon "pin punch" Lots of options out there. Wilde seems good for the price. I have some Mayhew & Endres and they are excellent.

It's called a roll pin punch.
I see them for $5 on Ebay, but just need to know the size.
If someone owns this set, can the measure theirs?

It's a pin punch. A roll pin punch would have a protruding center dot.

I'm guessing your punch in need of replacement is 3/32 in., 1/8 in., or 5/32 in.

I used to have those. You can pull an appropriately sized segment from a stick of string cheese to replace it.

Any hardware or lumber yard that carries Dasco, Mayhew, or Enderes should have individual pin punches for sale.

I still have those in one of the sheds, and that is a very accurate assessment of their value. Once the cheese dries out though it may be slightly harder.

5/16 maybe? Go to your nearest hardware store or sears and see what looks right to you. Based off your recent threads I'm not sure if we're being trolled or not

I've had HF hammers that chunk off and fire projectiles 200 mph and get embedded in your skin (thankfully not my eyes); I now avoid any HF items that involve striking.

Don't know where you are, but if a Menard's is in the area, they have a full line of Wilde punches on the shelf at very reasonable prices.



I received a set of the Harbor Freight punches as a gift. I've beat the hell out of them with no problems at all. HF does sell a lot of ****, but these punches are legit.

Wrong.

Correct.

If in doing a search, do a search for a "Pin Punch". The roll pin punch has a half a ball on the end of the punch to center it in the hole of the roll pin.

A pin punch is just flat on the end and is used to knock out solid pins of sizes close to the size of the punch.

Correct terminology does, at times, make a difference when doing a search for something.

Look through some of these punches from Grainger. They have the Dasco, Mayhew, Klein, and various others. https://www.grainger.com/category/h...&searchRedirect=pin+punches&suggestConfigId=6

While we're on the subject, can anybody tell me where to get a replacement flint/striker thing for my Bic lighter?
