Did Dorothy let you borrow the 7 Dwarfs to hold that log while you hit it?

I have been looking around for a fat punch. Best one I found was a 1/2 thick front to back brass one. I have some beefier ones, but the punch side is on the small side. I wanted to find something with a 3/4" end on it, but could not. I have a 5 or 8 lber myself. I guess worse case I could bring out the 15lber with the really long handle, but it takes two hands to hold it and not sure I want either of my kids holding up a punch while I swing that bad-boy
