can get it for =A345 including postage.



I have a jigsaw but i think that messes up the case a bit. I might just use a hacksaw. But I like the look of this thing.



also, Is there any standard thing to cover ones mouth to protect oneself from metal filings?

mod now and in the future.

I'd be more inclined to one of these:

Yeah, Much better than donating used IT to needy causes...

(not!)

I won't be getting a circular saw then!

I could buy a SIP 16" VARIABLE - SPEED SCROLL SAW . Or would that be a case shredder too?

i'm fairly sure that scroll saws need not shred cases up, 'cos I was told that scroll saws are good for modding cases. The prob is, I don't know if maybe 16" is too big, and would shred the case.

Judging by the URL that's a totally inappropriate tool (I didn't follow the link).

Have a look at nibblers or aviation snips if you don't want to use a jigsaw.

A neckerchief - it goes well with a wide-brimmed hat.

How about a nibbler .. Just drill a hole on the waste section and follow the line which you have drawn before .You do need an electric drill tho'
