It's a quite simple circuit, but I was still rather surprised when I turned the board on for the first time and it seemed I hadn't screwed anything up.

Still, it's a little lacking in leverage so your hand really start to ache if you make a habit of cutting anything anywhere near that thick. Looks like my off brand gets about 3mm give or take.

It's always reading gossip magazines. (<a href="http://www.instantrimshot.com/">Try the veal!</a>) Actually, I think the maximum capacity of the non-Adel nibblers actually <b>is</b> larger (though they're less robust and you probably can't replace the punch). I just eyeballed it, and the Adel can only manage about 1.7mm. (I think the official maximum capacity is .0625 inches, which is about 1.6mm.) There's about another 1.5mm of actual travel in the mechanism, though, so you could probably hack an Adel nibbler into managing at least 2.5mm, material-you're-cutting permitting, of course. Just how shallow is your nibbler?

I can chop up coins with the cheap little one I got for Radio Shack. On the other hand most American coinage tends on the thin side, being as a rule under a dollar if in common use. Still, thicker than that would be severe for sheet metal. Just how shallow is your nibbler? I can chop up coins with the cheap little one I got for Radio Shack.

Mind you, most of the panels (well, all of them) have been either plastic or aluminium. Don't know how well that would work in steel.
