ELECTRIC DRILL REFITTING PLATE SHEARS REVIEW

After watching several videos showing various people using these shears to effortlessly cut sheet metal into giblets, I have bought myself a pair. In this video I unbox, install and test these drill shears on a scrap piece of "heavy duty" Galvalum tin roofing material.

"It's not horrible but it's not great" should be the Temu ad slogan 😂

[@tntstack]

Sweet tool, I need to get me one of those😆😆🤣🤣

[@Gems-of-Hope-Rocks]

Nice! Thanks !!!

[@matthewdawson9064]

Thanks for the review, boy I wish I'd seen it a few weeks ago!

[@ManMountainMetals]

🤣 They make it look 👀 so easy. 😂

[@user-fe4wt9gw7j]

Funny about that .@@ManMountainMetals

[@iiniijewelry]

🤣 I’ll be sure to grab one up right away. Always wanted to know what it felt like to get cut by sheet metal as the tool you’re using jumps off the metals 🤣

[@ManMountainMetals]

It 🔥 burns, it burns.

[@iiniijewelry]

🤣 I bet. I bet that’s be good the chop up wire though. Like so it’s not a big ass roll of slop in a bucket. 🤷🏽‍♂️ I’m sure it has a safe practical use somewhere 🤣

[@ManMountainMetals]

@Kēvin Rose if the bottom cutter was gear driven by the upper cutter, it would be a much better tool.

[@cavalryscout8720]

I almost bought one on impulse.. .. almost lol

[@playtimewrestlingfederation]

Nice!

[@Scrap2Cast]

Lol at least it works! Wondering if you can adjust the height of the blade so it will “grab onto the metal” so you don’t have to push it 🤔

[@ManMountainMetals]

No. I checked out some other people's videos, and it is the most common complaint.

[@Scrap2Cast]

@@ManMountainMetals ok thanks for the info. I won’t be buying one 🤣

[@ManMountainMetals]

@@Scrap2Cast I can't imagine cutting along a line would be easy. Maybe using 2 hands would help if you didn't have to hold the workpiece.🤷

[@Scrap2Cast]

@@ManMountainMetals I’m willing to bet if you can clamp the sheet metal down it could be easier or have a buddy hold the piece 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's not great but it's not horrible. 🤣

[@ManMountainMetals]

It's another MVP, minimally viable product. If the lower gear had also been powered instead of free wheeling, I believe it would function like the one in the infomercial did. It beats tin snips but would be awkward to use one-handed as you have to guide and push the drill.

[@Nomadcreations]

Thanx, I was Curious about how they(It) worked for a regular person being in the sales vids they work so perfectly.................................

[@ManMountainMetals]

Not great. It has only one powered cutting wheel, so a significant amount of force is required. It is difficult to both push and guide the tool simultaneously, I'm sure it could be done with practice, but it is substantially different than shown in the ads. thanks for watching.

[@ShroomDay0117]

I'm only 45 seconds into the video and just hearing the voice over of the commercial would turn me off to any product. This cant turn out good. But I'm gonna keep watching.

[@ManMountainMetals]

It beats using hand shears but didn't live up to expectations 😕

[@CarlBriggs25]

😂😂😂😂 I guess i ll keep mines, “not horrible not great” maybe useful one day

[@ManMountainMetals]

Yeah, but when you finally need it, ya can't find it. 🤷

[@CarlBriggs25]

@@ManMountainMetals Dude you stating facts . 😂

[@allaboutsiarra7223]

there not made to cut very rigid metal, only thin sheet metal. i have one also. they cut superloom sheets great.

[@ManMountainMetals]

They are advertised as being able to cut mild steel. The metal in the video was galvanized aluminum (zinc coated aluminum) that I was cutting. That is about the least thick and softest roofing material a person would want to use. Any thinner and the nails pull through the metal sheeting in any kind of wind. If both wheels had been geared to turn instead of just one, it would have worked a lot better. I am glad you found them useful, and I appreciate you watching my video. But I honestly think that most people that buy this tool are going to want to use it on something more substantial than superloom sheets (had to look that up BTW, 😆) and as a roofing tool it's really not up to the job. IMHO.

[@Cragsman_Qureshi]

Can we sheer compressed cardboard with it thickness 4 mm??

[@ManMountainMetals]

I'm going to say, yes. Yes you can.

[@Maxid1]

There might be a learning curve...

[@ManMountainMetals]

I agree about the curves.🤣 My main problem with that small bit of metal I was using is that I needed two hands on the drill, one to hold the trigger and one to push and guide. The trick is I also needed to hold the piece of metal, so I plumb run outta hands.🤣 If the manufacturer had geared the anvil head to run with the cutter head, it would work a lot better. As is, the cutter turns but the anvil doesn't and it takes considerable effort to push the tool through the work piece. If you were cutting full sheets you could just throw some blocks on it to hold it in place while you used both hands on the drill. Thanks for watching, I can't believe my dumb little video got 11k views.

[@Maxid1]

@@ManMountainMetals I noticed from watching a few reviews of this piece of crap that people that had the drill set on high had better performance and didn't need to push it so hard to get it through, also giving them a straighter cut line.

[@user-fe4wt9gw7j]

After watching your demonstration I tried my own of the same brand and found it doesn't cut straight and about 6 inches in on a wobbly cut it got bogged in the aluminum 1mm sheet and was difficult reversing it to remove . The directions are useless and that is why I came to KZbin to find out how to operate it . Man Mountain Metals is telling it as it is . I expect more expensive brands would work as expected but not this one .

[@ManMountainMetals]

If both the cutting wheel and the anvil wheel turned at the same rate, gear driven, for instance, it would be a much more usable tool.

[@user-fe4wt9gw7j]

I went back to where I purchased it from and gave them a serve of what I said to you , typical dodgy Chinese .@@ManMountainMetals

[@teamSHTF]

Why not add another POS to the pile 😂
