Our basic machine since the early 1930's.  18" throat with 18 stations, will punch holes up to 2" in diameter with a force in the 8 ton range when operated
by an average sized worker.  This machine is still very popular with government agencies, model shops or work places that need a greater assortment of sizes in the range under 2".
