There are numerous tutorials.. Have you tried those?

What problems are you having?

Can you post the files you are trying to create a punch from?

I need to create a punch with an extrusion, which automatically pierces the room in which will gather have a place or have placed.

at school I do not use Inventor but I am in training, and the company welcomes me working in Autodesk

I think the first thing I would do is go through all of the built-in Help>Learning Tools>Tutorials and Skillbuilders.

the file is attached, 
This morning I found a pretty good tutorial on http://au.autodesk.com   (http://au.autodesk.com/?nd=tech_talk_detail&article_id=10&jid=9835)

I'll look on the site you advice me.

First thing - I would turn off AutoProject Part Edges on Sketch Create, see

http://home.pct.edu/~jmather/SkillsUSA%20University.pdf

 

Second thing, before anything else - place a center point in the first sketch for your Punch feature.

You have not created a feature with your sketch - so it is unclear what you want your punch tool to look like.

Can you attach picture of similar feature or complete the feature with whatever techniques you know and then someone will demonstrate how to do it as a Punch tool.

 

Search here as well

Hi! Punchtool (iFeature) is limited to some sketch-based features not all. Sweep based on 3D sketch path and Loft are among the ones being excluded unfortunately.

For a regular part, you could use a workflow to bypass the restriction. Basically, you make a source feature part. Then derive it as a separate body in the part you want to place the feature. Then use Move Bodies (Direct Edit) command to relocate the feature body to the desirable place. Next, use Combine feature to join or cut it.

Thanks!
