Westnet is WA, but it is national roaming, we have it here in northern NSW

Where are you, Ash? Does "Westnet" imply Perth?

I have an old but good set of letters and numbers which I assume are
Imperial. The square shank measures 5/16", but it is difficult to know
just exactly how your 5mm dimension is applied.
e.g., in my set, from the top to the bottom of the cutting edge of the
letter "O" measures 5mm as compared by eye with a vernier caliper, but
the overall height of the impression made in, say, aluminium, is about
5.3mm.

Depends how soft is the material and whether you have a calibrated
hammer/wrist combination.

JW² in W.A. (not WA)
