center punch
Drill guide tool
A center punch is a pointed metal tool used to make a small indentation in a surface, typically to mark where a hole will be drilled.
The dimple prevents the drill bit from wandering: Use a center punch before drilling into metal.
As a verb, to center punch is to strike with this tool.
