Hole centering punch

Looking for a tool that will make a punch in the exact center of another hole. Something to make a pilot punch to transfer holes. Hole size in the 1/2" range.

Hope that makes sense, :_paranoid .

You are looking for a set of transfer punches like these:

Yep -- Transfer punches - that's exactly what they're made to do. A couple "sets" will take you from teenie tiny to an 1"

I also use mine for scribes in certain cases (If the pattern is "thick enough" to have an edge). If you want to trace a pattern exactly 1/8" "LARGER" for trimming purposes... grab a 1/4" transfer punch and put the edge on your pattern and trace away!
