| WTBorrow 3.25" Hole Saw |

| LPZ:
Just wanted to know if there is anybody out there that is willing to let me borrow their 3.25" hole saw to make a hole in my CP for my happs trackball. I hate to buy one for $25 and probably use it only once. I know a man's tools are kinda personal to them, but I thought I'd give it a shot. Anyway, I will pay shipping both ways, and throw in a couple of items for free for the usage(i.e. buttons, connectors, etc.) thanks, LPZ |

Just as a thought, I bought a hole cutter that's designed (I think) for a drill-press. It's basically a drill bit with an arm that connects to an adjustable metal cutter (so you can change the radius of the hole. IIRC, the bit cost me about $8. Get ready for some ascii art: (bit) || || (arm) ||__________||__ ||---------------||--- || || || || \/ |/ (cutter) Anyway, I bought this instead of a holesaw. I didn't see the sense in paying $25 for something I'd use once either. Instead, I paid about $8 for something I used once. ;) Anyway, if you'd like to try it, I'm sure it'd cost less than shipping someone else's holesaw back and forth. As a side note, I believe I used my drill in reverse when using this, but in retrospect, it's probably not necessary. Just use your drill at a semi-slow speed and all should be well. Edit: made ascii art a little clearer... (maybe?) |

I might have one that size. Seems like we used one about that size for a PVC drain. If so, I doubt I'll need it anytime in the next few weeks. I'll check tonight, and be happy to send it out to ya if I do have one that big. Your not in St. Louis are ya? |

Another place you might want to check is your local Freecycle chapter. You might be lucky and find someone in your local community would lend you this. http://www.freecycle.org/ Look to see if your city is there and post the same post you did here. |
