I got one from AMT back when the earth was young, at what I remember as a
similar cost. I used it for punching hundreds of player gaskets, with my
elf made rule dies, and general mashing operations. It has a throw of more
like 6", but I haven't used it for much lately. That's the problem with
this continuing education thing. I have to keep digging out this old stuff
and reevaluating all the time.
