I dont own a Dremel, but i gather a lot of you guys do, so tell me what you think of this: I'm trying to figure out how to cut the Home Depot gutter mesh, to fit over the main, (upper grill) on the front of my Max. Will the Dremel work to do a clean and effective cut of the gutter guard? If so, what model of Dremel would be needed with what sort of blade attachement? thanks for the help

tried that

tin snips dont do a very clean cut, (at least the snips I have dont) They twist and mangle the mesh as they cut it, making the ends look sorta crappy.. that's why I'm trying to figure out if a Dremel would do a better job.
