Review: Pleasantly surprised. Useful bit of kit. - Been using tin snips for years and struggling to cut areas that weren't edges. Bought this nibbler to be able to cut between larger sections of sheet and was surprised at how easily it cuts. It cuts cleanly without trying to bend the sheeting and is quite easy to cut to a line. Quality of the product seems good too. For the cheap price I was pleasantly surprised.
Review: Easy to use and good value for money. - As the name suggests, it is a nibbler and not a pair of shears. However, with a little practice and thought very easy to use and does the job admirably. Good value for money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this tool cut corrugated metal sheeting please?**
A: YES!I cut some last year.Its not easy, if cutting across the ridges, but it possible with patience. It would be almost impossible with conventional tin shears.The progress will depend to some extent on the thickness of the material.You will need to pull the curl of cut material clear of the cut as you work.RegardsNik

**Q: what is the width of each nibble?  I'd like to have very thin nibbles for my project.  I've seen nibbler widths as small as 2.7 mm, but need smaller.**
A: This one is 2.6/2.7 measured with a vernier caliper.If it was much narrower, there would likely be problems with cutter breakage.If you need smaller, perhaps you should try 'tinsnips' they have zero width of cut.
