Centre Punch and Nail Punch recommendation

[deema]

I would really appreciate any suggestions for a really good centre punch and a set of nail punch's. I've tried a few and most seem to mushroom over at the slightest hint of any work.

I use Priory 66 punches for setting nails. I think Axi used to sell them - not sure if they still do.
I have to confess that for centre punching I tend to use a masonry nail

Eclipse are about the best I've found.

I've ordered an automatic Eclipse and see how we get on. I was looking at the Starrett punches as an alternative. Thanks for the suggestion.
