Title: Die Grinder
Post by: w squared on June 25, 2009, 10:21:29 AM

Does anyone have a die grinder that they'd be willing to let me use for (about) thirty minutes? I would like to slightly ream out the tabs in my bumper to allow the pins on my oversize shackles to slide through more easily. I do own a Dremel, but given that the tabs are 1 inch steel I think that it might be a bit much to ask of it.

If there's a time that I can squeeze in without getting in the way of your other customers, I'd be all over that!

I'll give you a call.

Have I mentioned that I'm loving the bumper that you built?  ;D

Could always use a reamer.

Use a reamer to ream? That'd be using a tool for the job it was designed for. Isn't that....like....wrong?

Just go slow with the reamer, no need to jamb it in there and break your wrist!
