That's a really nice kit. I've been looking for one for a long time. Maybe someday it will materialize. Until then blue punch it is, but at least I have that sweet, sweet Herty Gerty in the wooden box. Thanks for the video,.
I still have mine as well. I have one for Kwikset and the other for Schlage. I find they can be a slight temperamental. But I think it has to do with the “squeeze” I use and how I calibrated them. I love manual punches in general. I also have a couple of the HPC manual punch machines which can do several dozen other keyways with just swapping cards. I was hoping Framon would start making these Pakapunches as they are doing other A1 products but probably won’t happen. Thanks for sharing!
I love mines, I actually have 2 of them... I have a bunch of depth knobs and carriages but cannot use most of them because they require 88 degree punch and die... Pak a punch is my go to with ford chevy.. I even use my older exacta 1 when im feeling nostalgic 😆 I have 2 electronic key machines and still love using my Pak a punch

Such a smart system.. Still had to believe they are discontinued :/ what a shame
A1 is quality.
Maybe Framon will take up production
They wont. Ive already spoken to Phil.
@@JarethGarza crazy, but understandable.
beautiful tool...shame they went defunct
@@omarg4075 100% agree
Why would this lame company stop making such a great tool? Ive looked at their website, and everything is way overpriced. Bad business decision
