Thread: A boy and his tools!

Tweet

One of the side benefits of working on your own cars is it gives an excuse (as if we need one) to buy new toys...........errrrr, tools. Here's one I've seen advertised lately that looks intrigueing for the guy who wants to take a whack (pun intended ) at chopping a top, carving out some offending rocker panel, maybe even sectioning his old ride. It's a Craftsman Twin Cutter. Looks to be based on something the size of a 4" grinder. It has counter rotating blades that are supposed to counteract kickback and give a much smoother cut. The only potential limitation I can see right off is the 1 7/8" depth of cut, might be a bit shallow for some B pillars, but then, who says you have to go all the way through on one pass?

Here's a link to a review with photos:

Well Drg, the Eagle is boxy enough, you could probably take 2"-3" out of the top of it.

Maby somthing like this I'm not the best at photoshop

Thanks for the info Bob. Looks neat, got to get to Sears and check it out!!!

I have seen one being demonstrated; very impressive, the things that guy did. Of course, demonstrations are designed to sell the product, and sometimes don't really represent the true practical uses that the item might regularly be put to. But, ---- !!

Isn't there some old saying: "he who dies with the most toys, wins!"??
