My wife saw one of these at AirVenture and thought it would be useful for
her projects. I'd never heard of it, and seemed pricey ($180 for a nibbler
that attaches to your electric drill, plus some spare cutters.)
Anybody got any word on this?
thanks

Yup, bought one several years ago for somewhat less money. The first
point is: you never saw the people demo'ing them make a straight cut on
a layout line. They show you free-hand, nonstop, random curves that look
great, but this is not what most people want to do. That said, they do
nibble like crazy. You get much better control with a variable speed
drill set at a low speed.
