> Dremel works just fine on Aluminum - use the nice very thin > very fragile abrasive disks and enjoy My experience with abrading aluminium is that it quite quickly gums up whatever space there is between grit. Faster doesn't help, just makes the aluminium even more malleable. I suppose if the abrasive disk is wearing down and taking the aluminium with it that wouldn't be so bad. Bit messy around electronics though but if the case is apart then the insides can be cleaned * * ********** Quality PIC programmers http://www.embedinc.com/products/index.htm --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
