(1/2) > >>

windowlicker:
i am awaiting delivery of a set of flexi arches and thought you guys could give me some advise as to which is the easiest way of doing to dreaded chop so i can get prepaired :->

windowlicker:
oh and its a 5 door so im guessing nibbling the doors is a no no
however i do have access to a dewalt recipitating saw if any one has tried one of these if so let me know how you got on

Disco Matt:
A nibbler is probably more controllable due to being a hand tool, but it might be harder to cut a smooth line with the nibbles it takes than with a jigsaw.

I would say that a reciprocating saw is probably a bad idea - they seem more of a demolition tool than a precision cutting device!

russ3120:
I used a jigsaw when I did mine, found it very easy to control

Pete:
 Angle grinder.
 Mark where you want the cut, then take it easy, shallow cut with a narrow disc, then cut through.
