Re: cutting plastics

I've used a torch! Die grinder works the best. As for your buddy, i'd use a dremel i guess... something small with less heat... that way you could be more precise.

Re: cutting plastics

if its frame sliders i would get it circular cutting tool. its like a giant drill bit. easy to find and it will cut a perfect circle for your frame slider to fit.

Re: cutting plastics

Buy a hole drill bit. Make sure it is for plastics and size it a little bigger than the slider. Works like a charm.

Re: cutting plastics

do you just have to notch them or do you need a complete hole? i always use either a hacksaw or this big *** pair of tin snips i got, works like a charm everytime
