Don't screw it up when you cut it out. I once dropped a soldering iron on one Craig Harris had spent hours on, NOT good!

That's what I'm scared of doing dan, I'm left handed and don't have any left handed scissors so cutting anything out is awkward to say the least! I'm just going to have to take my time and do if properly

Most of us use a pair of scissors or a good knife to cut out our shells, is it a Welsh thing to use a soldering iron to cut shells out

Wayne,

Loosly trim with scissors and finish with a dremel - not joking.

Dan is not Welsh and I definately don't recomend people put a soldering iron anywhere near shells I have spent hours slaving over

Nice shell BTW Wayne, can't beat blue, orange and white LOL

All i do is score the lines with a scalpel then fracture the weakened lexan by folding it . Allways gives a nice line.
