Re: Re: DIY Data Wallplate

["Mal Lansell" <mlansell@xxxxxxx>]

Thats two votes for a Dremmel.  After reading Alistair's post, I had a look
at their site and was thinking along the lines of the scrolling saw, but I
guess the cutting disk would work, and I'd have some other uses for a
rotary
tool anyway...

Thanks for the tips, both of you.
