Have you ever realized that K & D punches are 30 numbers apart for a opposite punch of the same size?
If you use a round or flat face punch, the same size in the opposite is 30 numbers away. Look at punch # 44. It's 2.38. On the opposite side of the set you will find punch # 74 (30 digits away) is also 2.38. Marshal uses letters there fore a A 38 will be the same as a B 38 of the opposite punch. Kapice?

Thanks for the info Patrick. But when I got my set a year or so ago, all the stakes were floating around in the case when I unpacked it. Now I am so used to how I organized it I would have a hard time finding things if I changed it.

Using this organization chart to arrange the stakes helps save time and reduce errors finding matching round and flat nose stakes to rivet staffs.

Dave, Patrick,
Thanks. I've tried to copy and print this chart to put in my set, but haven't figured out yet how to copy and save it.

Dave, if you have a PC (not Apple) cursor over the chart, right click, go to "save picture as", left click on that then left click drop down arrow next to "my pictures". Then scroll to "desktop" as your target, left click that and scroll to "save", left click on that and it will be on your desktop screen where you can print it.

Dave,
Thanks, Got it!
Simple. Thought I'd tried that already.
I save stuff like this all the time, but I use IrfanView.

It can be even simpler is that. Some modern browsers will let you drag and drop it onto the desktop.
