NOTE: The cuttings from this nibbler are rectangular and do not stick to shoe soles like the crescent shaped ones from circular needle cutters. Cheers Rob

Just thinking Rob, can you feed it sideways so it reduces the kerf width?

Hi Tony. Good question. No. It only has relief for one feed direction/angle. Interestingly the smaller unit has both rectangular and round cutters. The larger unit only has rectangular sets. So the smaller unit gives a better finish for curves (with the round cutter) but can also switch to rectangular for straight cuts. The small unit is also designed for one hand use and does not have provision for a side handle. Interesting machines. Cheers Rob

Hi Stephen. Bargain compared to what else is on offer. I've been using it all morning to trim some fence/gate paneling same as I cut in the video and it did a great job. It's quite controllable and the weight is not really an issue. The chips cleaned up easily with the Vevor magnetic broom I reviewed earlier this year. Thankfully the chips aren't pointy like most nibblers and don't stick in your shoe soles or flesh etc. All round it's a good unit. Cheers Rob

We had a new metal tile roof fitted to our house in Brisbane many years ago and they used a circular nibbler that filled the front lawn with those horrible little crescent-shaped bits, it was like mowing with a bloody machine gun for ages. Mind you mowing under the Macadamia tree in the back yard wasn't much better.

Incredible how well it does it Tony. Also the chips it makes are rectangular and not as much of a hazard as the crescent shaped ones from the more common circular nibblers. Those are really dangerous and stick in your shoe soles and any exposed flesh. Cheers Rob

"It's built like a tank, it cuts like a tank, it's a beast" of an awesome TANK! lol. Thanks Rob, I'm really impressed with that. Vevor have been coming up with some bloody good tools of recent times and from their lathe chucks to machine vices now to this nibbler! Great review mate! I've just read your post Rob and that's a very good point. The small crescent shaped cuts from the circular cutter on smaller nibbles are a true pain in the arse especially if you are cutting stuff off of car body panels and have to lay down under the car to do it. They bloody hurt when they get stuck into your hands or knees !

Thanks Sam. It's a very strong unit. The way it chewed through that 3.2 mm steel was amazing. The Vevor products I've reviewed have been excellent, especially for the price. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers Rob

Interesting tool Rob. Looks to be difficult to control hand held to cut in a straight line. Guess it needs a guide/fence to run the cutter against? I have a Monodex hand nibbler made in England. Only cuts steel to 1.2mm and aluminium to 2mm. With care it will cut in a straight line with a nice clean finish. Its old one. Cost me £8. New about £48. Cheers Nobby

Hi Nobby. It was difficult trying to cut metal with the camera in the way. It does shake a bit and the work needs to be held down. For a straight cut you should try and use a guide. Cheers Rob

That was very impressive Rob. Especially the way it cut through that thick steel. Not a tool I think I would ever have a use for but impressive non the less. Cheers, Alan.

Hi Alan. These are mainly used by industry. This one having a greater depth of cut is a big plus for home use where you may want to easily cut up checker plate sheeting etc. Previously I had to use a cutting disc in a circular saw and work my way down through it. Both methods require a guide bar for a clean cut. Cheers Rob

Curious, do you press down slightly when cutting or pull up slightly ?

I don't do either. The pinching action and unit weight is sufficient to prevent inertia movement.. The main pressure application will be directional and is applied at a level sufficient to prevent the unit bogging down

Hi Harold. I trust you're going OK. I've been looking at nibblers for decades, but it's a pretty specialised tool and a bit over the budget until now. Doing some fencing ATM so that's what prompted me to do the review. It's a beast :) Cheers Rob

Sure did. Yes a guide would help as with any single point cutting system. It's actually quite controllable when the camera isn't in the way. I used it on some fence panelling yesterday and it did good. Quite fast. Cheers Rob
