Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: 8 Inch Brake/Shear (Still Available)

The little 8 inch brake/shear unit is still available from several sources.
For starters, try ebay motors, or just google "8 inch brake shear.
Most sellers are asking about 150 to 175 bucks. Not a bad price.

Looks like a nice unit, and if I was doing more than about four PCB's
per year, I'd think about getting one.

At present, I just use a carbine-tipped scribe to score the epoxy-glass
board
and then snap it off over the edge of my work table.

If I recall, the carbide scribe cost about two dollars, but I can't remember
where I purchased it.
