The Beadsmith Professional Quality Disc Cutter Set will cut perfect ovals neatly and easily. This is a great time saver from the old ways of cutting and sawing your own ovals from sheet metal. The holes of the tool have been drilled, reamed, and honed in order to make fine and clean cutters. The set contains 4 punches and die. The tool can create 4 different size ovals from 1/2" x 11/16”, 5/8" x 13/16", 3/4" x 15/16", and 7/8" x 1-3/16" (13 x 18, 16 x 21, 19 x 24 & 22 x 30mm). This tool is constructed from solid high-density and durable alloy steel. The base measures 3" x 2-3/4" (76.2mm x 70mm). To use please remember to put on your safety glasses and place your tool on a sturdy durable surface. The tool is packaged in some oil for its protection. Wipe off the excess oil before starting. The tool should be on a rubber bench block or pad for support. Use a lubricant on the cutting edges of the punch to reduce friction and ensure a cleaner cut. Remember the flat side goes down and the bevel side is up. Place the soft sheet metal up to 14 gauge and thinner (such as aluminum, brass, silver and gold) into the slot and put the punch into the hole. Use a 1-2 lb copper or brass hammer and with a clean strong strike push the cutter through creating a nice crisp and clean oval. This tool is ideal to create jewelry, artwork, crafts and more. The best part is that our cutter is easy to use. This tool makes the perfect gift — give your loved ones the extra boost they need to get them started on that hobby they've been planning to start. It's sure to be a unique gift to help them develop their creative and artistic talents. This tool is ideal to create jewelry, artwork, crafts and more.
