So today I got my new 82qt kettle, and it's time to start making holes. I've used a step bit in the past but being a thinner wall I wanted to use a punch. I've seen that it makes a much cleaner hole.
My question is about the harbor freight punch set: HERE
It is electrical conduits so the sizes would reference.
Die - Actual Hole
1/2" = 7/8"
3/4" = 1-3/32"
1" = 1-11/32"
1-1/4" = 1-11/16"
Am I correct that a 7/8" hole is used for a weldless 1/2" and a 1-11/32" for element.
I just want to make sure I'm getting the correct punches. I'm only needing to cut one of each hole so I'm ok with harbor freight quality.
