Doming block - are these marks normal
I bought this doming block and have some very small 'nicks' on it. This is the second punch I've bought (from different people) and I'm beginning to think I've turned into an obsessive nutter :o :-D

In your honest opinions guys, are these 'nicks' anything to worry about, or should I send this one back too???
Thanks guys ... I've got another 2 questions now
Aw thanks so much guys and especially George for the tip with using Micromesh. :Y: I was having an 'over fussy' moment there and thought the marks meant that, if I wanted to produce a lovely lentil bead, it might make soldering them a bit more difficult.
Mind you, I've got to learn how to do small ones first... something good to look forward to now! Yipee I can get excited now, cos I don't have to send my DB back !!!! My torch came today too!
While I'm on, if I use my cutting disc to cut some silver circles and want to hang it, do I just use a normal drill bit to make a small hole for this, or a new one that hasn't been used for drilling anything else before? Plus, do I have to pickle it to work harden, or can I just hammer it lightly?
