Default turret punch

Hi All . I have just picked up an American built Diamond brand 12 station turret punch. It is in pretty poor condition and I am wondering if anyone out there in metal shaper land has one of these or knows where punch and dies are available from?? Regards Ian

You might try taking dimensions of the pockets and checking with Wilson Tool or Diacro. If I'm remembering right (not always the case) several of those turret punches used fairly common punches and dies.

Default Punch and Die

I buy my Rotex punches and dies from CE Tooling in Las Vegas. They can build anything you need is my understanding.

I've used both CE tool in Lost Wages, NV
and Cleveland Tool.
Both are good, and for different machines.
