Dittos. I bought this one a few months back, and it is a great little cutoff saw. I've used my Dremels (own 4 ...) for a lot of cutoff work, but this one is great to get nice, square cuts.
These are on sale a lot, so don't buy one at full price unless you just absolutely gotta have it, regardless of price. :biggrin:
Bob,
This was my best method for cutting brass tubes using my dremel with the black cut off disks shown in this pic cutting a groove in tool steel for a circlip.
Quite accidentally I used a small three wheeler band saw with a metal cutting blade it is by far and away the easiest cutting method for me, I use a cartridge reamer (all gun stores) it has an inside and an outside function to clean the cut.
Kind regards Peter.
