Abstract
A punch for making holes in sheet stock is disclosed having three main components, a frame, a lever arm, and a plunger. The frame defines a tool head with a handle extending therefrom. The tool head defines a lower jaw and an upper jaw. The upper jaw is spaced apart from the lower jaw to define a first slot opening into the tool head from the first lateral side between the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The stock to be punched can be received and positioned by the slot. A plunger is mounted in the lower jaw for sliding movement toward the upper jaw. A lever arm extends into the tool head and actuates the plunger around a pivot point in the tool head upon being urged toward the handle.
