PUNCHES SET OF 24 PCS

DESCRIPTION

Daps and dapping blocks may be made of metal or wood. A wooden dapping block is less expensive than a metal dapping block. Wooden dapping blocks have shallow depressions and some blocks have multiple depressions. A dap is a domed hand tool used to form metal shapes in the depressions of a dapping block. A dapping block may be a rectangular block or a cube that has depressions that match the dap. Forming of metal in dapping blocks is usually done in thin gauges and in soft metal. Use a hammer or a mallet for dapping. For Hammers and Mallets see page # 184
