I've seen shrinking discs mentioned or discussed on a few older threads but would like to see what people think today.
I have a small oil can spot (~ 3" wide) following a panel patch that needs to be shrunk, and I'm sure there will be more before this project is finished. I don't own an O-A torch but have MAPP and Propane. But the discs look like a much safer and less error-prone way to go. So what do you think of these things? Better than a torch for a nube? Are they all pretty much the same, or is there a particular one that stands out as better? Probably going to mount it on my ancient, bomb-proof 4" Makita with a 5/8" arbor adapter. I have an old 7" Craftsman that I rarely use because it is unwieldy and impossible to get into many places. Thanks! This community rocks! |

Nice property...are you a dental floss tycoon? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Thanks. I wish I owned more than 23 acres of that view, but we like it. I live down this road a piece: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Okay, maybe not. That photo of my house is kind of a lie because the view blocks out the four houses of my neighbors. But I have to walk a bit to get to them. All in all, not a bad place to hang out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif) |
