Re: Hex Broaching?
Thanks for the prompt replies.

Apparently I was searching in all the wrong places, as soon as I input into McMaster I got a quote of about $200 for a 1/2" hex broach. Is there a minimum recommended press size in order to do this kind of work (probably for aluminium applications only)?
