just finished my prototype brake skimming tool using a lidl cordless dremmel type thing. can't go any further until the cutters arrived as I've managed to misplace the one I had.

I like that, nice and simple. What type of cutter are you going to use?

Looks a great idea, I’ll take the sexy russian babe instead though!

I likes the idea with that m8
Be interesting when used how your rear brake is?

Any chance of some added picture of it minus rotary tool

It’s the dremmel drywall/plastic cutter. It’s the only decent cutting tool they do with the required length.

That looks useful, any updates if you have used it.thanks

I’ve used it but due to dust worries and asbestos I’ve skimmed a set of makino brand shoes. It definitely took more off one shoe than the other. I’ve put it all back together but as I work away in the week and due to the fact it was pissing down all weekend I haven’t had a chance to test it. Hopefully the weather will be ok Sunday and I’ll be able to road test the brake.

Hi ,did it work out good?,did you skim them when slightly adjusted,or with the cable slack?.thanks
