Yow, I see that a basic Stanley brace now goes for $79, but they're
on Ebay for less, and might be found cheap at garage sales or estate
sales.
Greenlee punches are pretty inexpensive:

Buy 'em once, use forever.

One thing - Greenlee chassis punches are measured using the bottom cutter.
e.g. the hole size it punches is the punch size.
Knockout punches by Greenlee - are for the Electrical trade - and are Conduit inside
sizes. e.g. a 1/2" Knockout is for tubing with ID 1/2". It punches the outer size
that is larger than the marked size of 1/2".
I bought a nice set of Knocks and couldn't use them. 1972. Had a nice handle system...
