Whats the best tools for a. cutting metal and b. grinding/tidying welds in very tight corners ie where a grinder wont get in? Is a jigsaw with metal blade gonna be any use? Die grinder? ive not got a compressor but do have some 18v makita kit, so could get a bare unit. 18v die grinder any good? Spank you very much
I use a jigsaw with a metal blade for cutting metal sheet to size or my grinder with a very thin disc. I think a die grinder would be brilliant for those difficult to reach corners though. Ben
I meant for cutting out rotten bits in tight corners on the bus , for patching up, by the way. I think some poeple use a dremel for the weld tidying but wasnt sure if they would last very long , die grinders look pretty heavy duty so wondered if theyd be better
A dremmel is pretty good for intricate work. Tight corners and small cuts. Also has interchangeable head for other uses.
my bodys chiselled enough thanks ooooh buff Good call on the drill die grinder bits, that sounds cheap! Although maybe a dremels the way to go if it can do cutting and grinding.
Dremel is beyond useless for proper manly bodywork such as yours, electric die grinders are expensive£100 plus, a friend of mine who restores stuff has only ever used die grinder bits in a drill
