Five-sided blanks for geometric work: pentagons at roughly 12 mm, 18 mm, 21 mm and 27 mm across (12 × 13 mm up to 27 × 26 mm), each punched from sheet with one mallet strike. They serve as components for geometric jewellery, inlays for models, and uniform bases for enamelling or stamping — anywhere straight sides and true angles matter.
The set weighs about 1.2 kg all in; the block (roughly 76 × 76 mm) and punches are carbon tool steel, hardened and tempered so the corners of the cutting edges stay defined. Anneal your silver or copper first, keep sheet to 18 gauge (1.02 mm), strike the bevelled end with a brass or nylon mallet, and use cutting fluid.

Common questions at the bench
What metal and thickness can it cut?
Only the non-ferrous sheet metal this product's description names, and no thicker than any gauge or thickness it gives. Do not cut steel or any other ferrous metal: sheet that is harder or thicker than the cutter is made for can chip or blunt the punches and the die.
How do I cut a clean blank?
Anneal (soften) the sheet and put a little cutting lubricant on the punch. Stand the die block on a solid, flat surface, set the sheet in it and seat the punch with its cutting end to the metal. Strike the top of the punch squarely and firmly, with the hammer or mallet this product's description suggests if it names one; one firm, square blow gives a cleaner edge than several light or glancing ones.
Will the blank need finishing?
Check each blank. Smooth any burr or sharp edge with a file or fine abrasive paper before the piece is worn or finished, and if a blank has bowed slightly in the cut, flatten it with a mallet on a bench block.
How should I look after it?
Use it only on the sheet it is made for. Wipe the punches and die block clean after use, oil them lightly and store them dry, with the cutting edges kept from knocking against other tools. If a punch sticks, tap it back out straight rather than levering or twisting it.
