Sheds Moderator Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Prob best to do this slowly with a burr in a Dremel type tool. Snips will distort the metal unless you are very experienced in their use. 😶🌫️ I know this to my cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Fein roof decking nibbler is the best bet with a fine nose for thin metal, from your local hire shop if they do them I've got loads of em, but here in lovely Birmingham ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Wong1697456877 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Did mine with snips - yes it does distort a bit but if you're careful, you can keep it to a minimum and it can be completely hidden with edging strip. I did all of mine with a small pair of left curve snips. Not mine though so I can't lend them out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markc Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 MikeE Not sure if you are now sorted - I have complete set left/right/centre etc if you want to borrow them. MarkC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Howe Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Mike, you are welcome to borrow my die grinder plus ali burrs. It is what I use for exhaust holes in the side skin and makes for a very easy life.
