I'm starting to play around with woods porting for the first time (darned CAD disease ! ! !). I'd like some recommendations about porting tools, bearing in mind that I will only be using the tools occasionally. I do not need nor can I afford pro-quality tools.
Here's what I've been considering so far:
-- dremel. A lot of people use them, I'm sure a dremel would do the job, but I'm guessing they are low on power ? They also appear to be a little bulky. The better dremels with lots of attachments are not cheap.
-- 1/4" pneumatic mini-die grinder. Should have plenty of power, not too bulky. Does it matter whether it has rear exhaust or for front exhaust ? Are these 1/4" mini die grinders too powerful and difficult to control for chainsaw porting ?
-- 1/8" pneumatic pencil grinder. Slim design looks user-friendly, but do they have enough power ?
Any other recommendations ? Anything I should stay away from ?
