Hammer/punch
This combination of tools is
used for making the holes for the rivets in phase boxes. The hammer is an
ordinary clawhammer. The punch is a "No. 2 hollow punch" and is tapered
to a diameter of 1/8" at the tip. The punch, used alone, is also handy
for removing the cloth from the holes of cloth-covered post binders, when
the boards have been drilled prior to covering.
