I've never even seen the pneum nibbler mentioned but have used the manual a lot. I hate them. Really only as a last resort if a hacksaw blade won't fit. (Just the blade, no frame.) By definition they nibble, the don't 'cut.' Ever eaten an apple 'neatly?' LOL! They're a *bitch* to make a truly straight line or smooth curve. If the item to be mounted has no bezel I nibble up to the last 1/16"-1/32" and file the remainder. Annoying ant time consuming. If no bezel I use the nibbler roughly and file just a little.
