Creo Sheetmetal: Creating a Half-Shear

I would like to create a half-shear. For those of you not familiar with this term, I basically want to punch a hole thru metal but only a certain depth, not all the way thru. I created a punch punch it does not do what I want it to do. Help is much appreciated. Material is 2.4mm thick, half shear diameter is 1.5mm and 1.7mm tall.

Figured it out. Someone mentioned to exclude surfaces. I excluded all surfaces except for the flat bottom. Worked great.

Got it. You need to exclude surfaces on the punch.
