BobbyBubblehead · Sep 17, 2009

No I was wondering about where I would get into heavy duty tools: I wouldn't even ask if I had a tig welder or a spool gun and a mill or lathe and some time on my hands but would painting with a spray gun, or using a sand blaster or welding some small parts get me in trouble.

Jolly-Swagman · Sep 17, 2009

When Modding a case you can use any normal power tools at your disposal

EG power drill , Dremel, Jig Saw, hand tools , files ect

if you have more powerful eqip like lathes ,mills cnc, lazer cutting ect

The you qualify for the Pro Modding Masters sect

BobbyBubblehead · Sep 17, 2009

trouble?

my brain pilots havin trouble?
how so trouble?

you mean like `oops ive dremeled my leg off trouble?`

my mother can handle power tools and shes erm quite old.... (keep her in a cage and feed her chicken heads most the time but thats another story

)

edit. there you go then you find a lazer cutter in that garage and your ready for the pro section.

If I find one im off to play that team lazer shoot out game at the adventure park... bet my team wins

BobbyBubblehead · Sep 17, 2009
