How thick metal can a dremel tool cutting wheel cut?

[Beerhippie]

There was a time when the E-Z Lock disks would leave the party with any lateral pressure. Somebody must have rewrote the bonding specs.

Any abrasive disk will give up the ghost and suffer a rapid unscheduled deconstruction event (gotta love NASA jargon) when side-loaded. The EZ-Locks will tolerate a little bit more than the old brown disks, which still ain't much. Gotta plan your cuts, especially with the body of the tool being larger in dia. than the disk.

No arguments from here, but there was a period that the EZ-Locks were real POS's. Last few years, not so much..

I guess I missed out on that. I've been using them since they came out and have always found them far superior to the brown ones.

Don't manicurists use a Dremel?

I use a 4 1/2" angle grinder and 80 grit flapwheel.

Those toenails can be wicked.

Felco pruning shears for those.
