DELUX DOMING PUNCH SET 40 PIECE

Metalsmithing can seem intimidating when you are first starting out, but it is quite easy, and with some practice you’ll find out how fast you will get the hang of it and begin making some pretty impressive pieces. The Beadsmith’s 40-piece Deluxe Doming Punch Set has all the sizes you’ll need to begin. The kit comes with 3 main parts: the punch set, the dapping blocks and the stand. The punches are made of steel and come in a variety of sizes ranging from 3.5mm to 24.5mm. There are 4 blocks for doming, dapping, shaping and bending, including the U-channel block with 22 grooves, a flat dapping block that comes with 27 depressions, the narrow swage block with 10 depressions, and a doming block with 21 depressions. They all fit perfectly into the display stand, which is made of hardwood and has an indented space for each piece, ideal for easy organization. Most often used with dapping sets are metal blanks made of malleable metals such as pewter, sterling silver, aluminum, brass, copper, and nickel silver.

Use the punch and block set to create custom made earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and rings. Combine with other mediums such as leather, wire wrapping and riveting techniques to form steampunk, rock or heavy metal looks. The Deluxe Set can be used in conjunction with our Metal Elements line, which includes stamping kits with alphabet letters, number sets and punctuation kits. Designed so you can personalize, the collection focuses on an array of fonts and designs, allowing you to truly express yourself. It is perfect for the DIY crafter!
