Sawblades
When I first entered this lunatic asylum I decided to upgrade my Tank ( there now that surprised you) so looking down hints and tips I found different ways to cut out panels there is the multi hole dremel way and DIETRICHs method which many people swear by, The suggested heavy weight used in this method darn near broke my foot (sorry ALB ) due to my incompetance.I found the X-ACTO page on google and I have for quite a long time been the proud owner of a set of KEYHOLE SAWBLADES and a set of RAZOR SAWBLADES with an exacto HANDLE, Now I Dremel the corner of the panel that I wish to cut with a 2mm bit then insert the Keyhole blade and cut until there is space for the Razor sawblade, and very quickly after a clean cut and I have yet to break my foot.shaun
I think I am about to upset someone

Re: Sawblades
Good Morning,
Thanks for the tip on X-acto, Jarndice. I am getting to the point in my skillset where I want to be able to open hatches and hinge them for easier access to switches and charging jacks.
