I’d like to convert the punching fixture shown into a taller one that would accept some of the various types of punch/die sets I have, see just a few samples of some of the types. Never have done any metal punching, almost totally ignorant on this except for some things found on the web. There’s only about 3 in. Of vertical clearance inside the fixture and I need at least double that even for the shortest punch/die I have. I have some 12 in. Danly corner posts I could probably swap out for the 6.5 in. Posts now installed. I didn’t just go ahead and do that yet because this being new to me, I don’t know if that’d work out. I know there are more parts I need to make for the fixture. If there are any books or websites or videos I should check, pls advise.
