Sawing one oval is a job; sawing a batch of identical ovals is a sentence. This set punches them instead: seven sizes from 4 mm to 16 mm, cut cleanly from silver, gold, copper or brass sheet in seconds each — matched blanks for stud earrings, charms and pendants straight off the bench. The blanks then go directly to forming; see our guide to dapping and doming.

Punches and die block alike are machined from hardened tool steel, which is what keeps the cut burr-free and the edges ready to finish. The solid, square-profile block sits flat and stable under the strike. Line up, strike, repeat — production speed without production compromise.

  • Includes seven oval punches and a matching die block, covering sizes from 4mm to 16mm.
  • Die block and punches are machined from hardened tool steel for a clean, burr-free cut.
  • The solid, square-profile steel block provides a stable base for striking.
  • Cuts clean oval blanks from non-ferrous metals including silver, gold, copper, and brass sheet.
  • Produces a complete range of ovals, from small earring studs to large pendants, in seconds.

Common questions at the bench

What metal and thickness can it cut?
Check this product's description for the metals and any maximum thickness it gives, and stay within them. If it gives none, keep to thin, soft, non-ferrous sheet. Cutting 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?
Stand the cutter on a solid, flat surface such as a steel bench block and check the sheet lies flat where it should. Set the punch with its cutting end to the metal and strike it squarely and firmly with a hammer, or a mallet with a hard face; a nylon, wooden or rubber face can be dented by the punch. 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 clean after use 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.
