14ga Nibbler - Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and Remodeling Forum

I need a good 14ga nibbler asap. I use to have the dewalt one but returned it after about 10mins of cutting - that paddle switch design is crap and you couldnt get a good grip to be able to follow a design line. In any case the only other ones I have been able to track down are the Metabo and the Bosch, so I cant decide - unless you guys know of any other brands that I dont know of...thanks.

My Milwaukee is good for 16 gauge only, any thicker and it's the grinder

Most of my cutting is 16ga but some projects I like using 14ga really just depends. So I wanna get a nibbler that can handle both. Like I said I had the dewalt, cut 14ga steel like butter but just had bad features that didnt work for me. Found a bunch of 16ga nibblers but kind of limited on the 14ga.
