I just had to buy this when I saw it....and it works awesome. Pretty cool to convert your drill into a sheet metal nibbler.

Soory I was excited so I thought I'd share.

We have one of those at work, and pot not to use I most of the time. I can see where its handier than carrying an actual sheet metal shear, but we have had problems with it not cutting very straight and in the Duct business its about accuracy if you want your customers ducts to seal, and you value their money. For a guy that can't afford a set of electric shears, they are probably great, but they are to difficult for us to use as far as keeping them accurate goes. We find that a good set of sharp hand shears are almost as fast, the only times we really use electric shears is when we are cutting heavy gauge stuff.

Yeah I didn't need duct-level precision as I was wrapping the sheet metal around tubing. I had never used electric shears before and compared to my old pneumatic ones....these are awesome. Good old air shears were either off or full speed.
