There are also punches for the job. Harbor freight will sell you a set for less than 5 bucks. They only go to 1/2", but my brass tube collection doesn't exist.

The problem I've had with these is when I'm under a car. The top of the car is being heated quite nicely, but I'm not. It's not so bad when the doors stay closed, and the air gets warmed by re-radiat

I think you'll find your building inspectors call them "prohibited". Pits are dangerous, not just because people fall into them, but because they collect heavier than air fumes. Carbon monoxide for o

It sounds like you'd recover the cost of a battery charger and a collection of NiMH batteries pretty quickly. NiMH cells are much much better than NiCd cells were. They've got higher energy storage,
