Hi,
I need to buy some number punches in either 6mm or 10mm this weekend. Anybody know of a tool shop that might be open on Sunday / bank holiday Monday
in London or the South East?

Halfords are nearly always open. Not checked but I'm sure they sell punches.

Steve,
If all else fails do you have a Dremel or equivalent - Do them by hand - A bit locost but does the trick...
If you pay peanuts...

Little tip when using the punches , the box section deforms! The diff top mounting area is thicker

Another tip is to do them in reverse order, it's a lot easier to line up the individual numbers and letters and space them evenly.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
