I think it would be quite specialist, but there would definitely be interest - as you can see from the posts

I'd be interested, if the price was right! Are you in a position to manufacture stamps with shapes and letters on too? The ones I have seen are way over budget...
Hey,
Just in case anyone is interested, this project will be going ahead. I appreciate everyone's input. I'll post a link to the website once it is online in the next couple of months.
Perhaps you could post a link to an example product? I will be doing hardened steel letter punch sets in different fonts.I'd be interested, if the price was right! Are you in a position to manufacture stamps with shapes and letters on too? The ones I have seen are way over budget...

I'm another one who would be very interested when you have them in production. I was searching the net last night to see if anyone anywhere did other shapes of punches apart from disks. I can see the potential for all sorts of shapes - squares, rectangles, hearts etc.

I would be interested too! Is this what you were talking about? If you could do it for cheaper than this, that'd be awesome!

Cymru am byth!
Caroleallen has one IIRC; I've built a lighter-weight one (only 10 ton on it) - keep meaning to get around to building a full size one that will take the standard accessories.
I have a Hunton press tool outfit, this tool is a frame that holds various size disc cutting dies and punches which allows me to cut discs up to 2 inch diameter, just using a simple fly press, tool makers will make any shape blanking out tools you need, but I could see an opening for someone who dedicates their die sets to the jewellery trade. I also have a box full of various cutting dies of different shaped watch case and bracelet shapes, there are a few companies that will make press tools to order, like Brennen, see; http://www.brennan-tools.co.uk/

I've got a dental prosthetics hydraulic press - I want to be able to do anticlastic bangles on it - not sure if it's possible to use the Bonny Doone sets on it without their fixtures though. Anyone got any ides?

You don't have to have a Bonny Doon to use most of the tools. I love my BD but it was a lot of money and even more to get it shipped over.
