How to Make a homemade Automatic Center Punch

An automatic center punch is a hand tool used to produce a dimple in a workpiece (for example, a piece of metal). It performs the same function as an ordinary center punch but without the need for a hammer. When pressed against the workpiece, it stores energy in a spring, eventually releasing it as an impulse that drives the punch, producing the dimple. The impulse provided to the point of the punch is quite repeatable, allowing for uniform impressions to be made.
Automatic Center Punch is a hand tool used to make a hole / dent in a workpiece (e.g., a piece of metal or wood) It is designed primarily for marking a hole for drilling and making sure the drill bit does not move during drilling. So when you have so much junk in the workshop, you don't really have to buy it, you can just build one like this easily, with the help of a simple spring and bolt. Watch the video and find out how.

Great idea, but a tip made from an ordinary screw is flat after 2 hits.

Free good

[@VittorioZamparella]

This is not automatic. If I have to use two hands then I can use the hammer (and a stupid nail)

[@david131092]

Blunted after 5 hits probably

[@Mkp20000]

Good if you need one in a pinch. But a decent automatic punch is only $15-$20.
