Hi,
I've got one that goes in the end of the drill, had it donkeys years no problem.
Only thing I would say against it is that it's a bit tricky to use as you've got to hold the drill, the nibbler attachment and what you're cutting!
Cheers,
Gavin :)

I have one for the drill too and bat is spot on there. Works best if you can clamp the nibler and move the metal. Obviuosly not possible if the thing you are nibbling is part of a shell though.

A man without a project is like a like a woman without a shopping list.

Great timing. I was reviewing a catalog with these, and there were options for drill, air, and electric. Air was most expensive, and I really see no reason to go that route, since electric was cheaper, cuts the same thickness/hardness, and you have a MUCH smaller diameter danglie of the back to deal with. Anyone know why you'd go pneumatic? Is it self-oiling, maybe?

If I could, I'd get you one cheaper from here, Dangerous, but I can't... :(

Yeah i use an air one a lot at work from machine mart. Just make sure that you oil down the fitting before use and make sure the stuff you are cutting isn't too thick Or else you may kill it!!

not much help really, but ive got a 110v one that i aquired with a load of other 110v tools in a bulk lot, and its awsome. did wonder about an air powered one, but tbh it would have to be preety good to live up to the one ive got....

And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

Thinking air then,so if I want to cut a little plate out I can hold the plate in one hand and nibbler in the other.

P.s. That is one reason why I bought 2 smallish compressors and joined them together to be more portable
