I have had a number of spring-loaded center punches, but this one seems to be the one that outperforms the others - at a price that won't break the bank. I use these for marking pilot hole locations for screws or dowels, marking centers on a turning blank, marking the spot to drill in metal stock, and they just simply work. I have used these with Baltic Birch plywood, assorted hardwoods, a few softwoods, mild steel, and aluminum stock. Zero complaints.A few things to keep in mind with these punches. You can - and should - adjust the force with which the punch fires. Softwood and hardwood are two very different things. Soft wood barely needs any force, hardwoods can need quite a bit more - depending on the wood. Aluminum is similar to hardwood in the force, steel can need even more. Make the adjustment before you punch. You will have much better results.You also need to measure accurately to mark your center with a scribe, marking knife, pencil. If you are using a crayon, you don't need an accurate hole so you don't need the punch :) Make sure you put the tip of the punch directly where your measurement lines meet, then rotate the punch so it is perpendicular to the workpiece. When you push, your force should be directly over the spot you want your mark. If you have the punch tilted, at best you get a mark slightly off. Worst case, you get a really nice scrape across your workpiece from where the center of the hole was supposed to be up to wherever you realized what was happening and stopped pushing. If you keep the punch perpendicular and have the force set, you will get a good mark first time, every time. If you have to punch again, there is a decent chance your center mark is no longer quite in the center.So glad I bought these. Might get a few more so I don't have to run around the shop looking for one, although the orange handles help.

One of my most used tools. Use it all the time to put 'starter' holes in boards so the drill bit doesn't 'walk'. Used recently to install three piano hinges on a project and it worked great.

If your just doing a few dozen punches there fine but after probably about 1-200 each they crapped out, no adjustments allowed them to work. Got the job done tho for cheap enough.

If you have a small space to work and you don’t want to bring the hammer then you might can work with this for small nails.

Works well not the nicest center punch I've ever used, but fairly good quality for the price. If you adjust it they are strong enough to punch through a common construction shim and into the second shim if that gives you an idea.
