The Sawinery Auto Center Punch has been specially designed for woodworkers, to allow precise and positive location for drilling holes. This has traditionally only been available to metalworkers, who typically use a center punch, before drilling. The shaper point and automatic tripping mechanism on the Auto Center Punch provide an indentation, without the need of using a hammer.
