Magnetic optical punch

[BazyleParticipant @bazyle]

I first thought of an operation like a solder sucker (compress plunger and press button to release) but there is a problem that the acceleration of the hammer may lift the point off the spot. Hence needs to be a bit hefty or force a gripping method that pushes it down like the traditional ones.

Wow, I’m impressed. Not sure it’s the way I want to go though. It’s a bit complicated and as Bazyle points out there are some downsides to consider. I really like the simplicity of the automatic punch, it just need better support.
