  Are you trying to make  : Washer shims" ?      If you are , i would try this first .  https://www.harborfreight.com/9-piece-hollow-punch-set-3838.html
   You can punch the outside diameter first than do the inside diameter . 
   You may be able to use the hollow punch to help center the pin / or other punch  to center the inside hole .

Ha ha ha... I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself.   ;D ;D Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
