Case Modding Tool Help

[tek inpektor]

I want to do a custom window on my friends PC. His side panel is made of steel.

Would this tool work?

I guess a better question would be:

What tools do you guys use to modify steel PCs without blowing your budget?

 

Also, I noticed a guy in the reviews said he cut through a 1/2" steel pipe, so do you think I'll be able to get a clean cut?

That is basically the same as a dremel except cheap made in china quality.

A dremel is the best tool for modding because you have a ton of attachment options for almost any case.

If you plan on doing more modding in the future I would suggest buying a real dremel that will last you a much longer time

If this is a one time thing, then it should do the job fine.

I didn't know the name of the tool. Looks like I'm buying a dremel!

Yup much better quality

Its like $100 more expensive, but totally worth it for DIY type guys!

Yeah, I'll probably be using it a LOT. Glad I asked here and didn't buy a piece of junk.

Here is a thread that is comparing the black & decker rtx-6 vs a dremel http://forums.gideontech.com/index.php/topic,31003.0.html

 

Also here is a product reveiw of the black & decker rtx-6

 

 

From what i have read, it can use all the dremal bits and accessories and it's very well built just like the dremal is.

Black and Decker is a very respected company, and they make quality products. Just throwing this out there.
