If you add compass kind of thingy to it, then it would be great to cut circles and arches too.
Great idea! Thanks
Interesting idea, what thickness of material will it manage?. Have valves might copy.
Why does this video have a filter applied and why is it mirrored? Is it stolen?
And here I thought it was just left hand threads...
Congratulations andrewwoody - your Sheetmetal Cutter is the Homemade Tool of the Week!
Very clever use of old valves! We have seen a small anvil made from a valve, by LMMasterMariner, but this is an interesting new idea.
