ebinmaine 67,279 #9 Posted June 10, 2020 So it CAN get metal but is that what YOU use it for? So now I'm wondering ... why use this instead of something like just a pair of gloves? Is the metal delicate? Are we trying not to stain the metal? Are we using this tool to put metal in at a particular angle or in a particular small place?

Are we using this tool to put metal in at a particular angle or in a particular small place? It has a very specific purpose. That purpose is within my line of work where precision is a must specially on big jobs. Edited June 10, 2020 by formariz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
