Drilling holes in thin brass

[ezdays]

You can get small hole punches in several places, Tandy Leather has several that are adjustable down to 1/16", and you might even look in a scrapbooking store. One is designed for leather, the other for paper, but there's no reason why they wouldn't work on thin brass. I've got a metal hand punch, but I don't think it goes any smaller than 1/8". I'll check, I can loan it to you if it will work for you.
