noel Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well i'm no expert, but i use the likes of a dremel to shorten bonnets and smooth the ends down with sand paper. crude, but it works well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 simple really, just cut it down with a dremmel or similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMurF Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Animalls You can get cheeper carborundum disks than paying dremmel prices Look in the hobby anualls at W H Smiths They don't cost too much And as for angle grinders Bit too dodgy on the fingers Especially a 9 incher ;D Its the same old thing Everyone has theif own way of doing things I'd much rather go the Junior hacksaw/needle file root as I value my little pinkeys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
