Can't Remember

Hi Gang,

Early in the year Tysen showed a picture of a tool he punches out windows with. Can anyone remember the name of it. Big thanks on any replies. Ron:thumb:

I think what your looking for was called a nibbler I think they sell them at radio shack. Pat

This is the thread he mentioned it in?

It is a nibbler, but Radio Shack (here anyway) says they no longer make it. You can get it thru Micro-Mark however.

Hi Tysen

I went to there website and ordered there catolog. I did look at the website and the only nibbler I could find was a powered one. What exactly was the tool designed for as that may help me running it down on there website? Also if they no longer make one would a powered one be a good investment. Thanks again'

The part #81477 is for a unpowered one. I'm not familar with a powered one but Jon has one and said it would eat the fender off a 57 Chevy. The original purpose of the tool (I think, always a bad idea! ) was to cut out square holes on metal panels for electronic projects. Again page 84 0f my current catalog (2003 Holiday Issue).

Micro Mark also sells a tool called 90 degree punch which I love for windows. It's #81652 and sells for 22.95. Worth it's weight in gold. I chuck it in my drill press. Works on basswood or styrene.
