Calling all welding guru's

[Justin & Muttley]

Right guys - some advice needed...

I've been cutting out rotten metal and welding in new plates but I'm finding it difficult to get in the corners with the grinder/flap wheel - how do you guys do it?

cheers

I found a dremel type tool with a mini grinding disc and flexible drive extension ideal for access to those awkward places.

I've got a Dremmel in the garage - I think I'll have to get it out and check it over... thanks!

Dremmels are ace for them tiny spots, just get in plenty of grinding discs and keep them goggles on! 8)

For the places discs don't even get to I use carbide burrs-

You should get one with a shaft dia. to fit a dremel.
I run em' in a small router.
Make sure it's carbide if you go for one tho.

Thanks for the advice guys - the Dremmel will be making a surprise outing this afternoon (with my goggles on obviously!)...
