Cutting tracks on liteon

[louis09]

Hi guys, was wonderin if anyone knows where i can get something to cut the tracks on a lite on drive board, ive seen shootsteels video where he uses some electrical cutting device. Anyone know where i can find one? im in the UK so british prices is better for me

Shoot steel uses a dremel with a bur tool. When I bought my dremel many moons ago, it came with one. They work real nice for this if you have fairly steady hands. I have used a pretty sharp pocket knife and have also used an xacto knife as well. All work well, just make sure you get the cut good enough to actually make the cut, I usually do about a 2mm cut just to be sure.

thanks for that, i got steady hands but always seem to cut my self when it comes to sharp stuff sliced my hand open the other day trying to do sumthin lol when do you think the probe v2 will be released? im not bothered about buying a cutting tool until its released. thanks again

I hate to be a bummer, but you will still have to cut traces with the new probe. I like the dremel. I keep mine on a medium speed so I can use light strokes across the trace that I'm cutting so it doesn't go all out of control on me. A good magnifier of some sort and a really good light source helps too.

Yeah thats what i mean, i dont want to buy a dremel until the probe comes out so then i can cut the traces to use the probe, i dont want to bother with the LT switch so ill wait for the probe, buy a dremel, then im all set to do those bum hole lite on drives lmao

meh, once you've done a couple successfully, you'll be wondering why you thought they were so hard, considering you still have any fingers left after your done, just kidding!!!

Hahaa i hope i still have all 8 of them INCLUDING THE THUMBS! i guess im gunna be seeing a lot more of the newer lite ons now they have hit the shelves for a few months, how many dedicated UK modders are there on this site now? im intrested in spreading the word that i flash drives, ive got an ad up on the web but its only for my area, ive done over 300 in just my area! im thinking more like the whole of the UK would be better any chance of me being one of the UK modders on the site? thanks man
