[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1422203, member: 24098"] I don't think I would use tin snips - only because they have a tendency to warp and bend metal prior to actually cutting it. I would just use a metal cutting wheel on a Dremel to remove the piece, then use a grinding stone attachment to buff and smooth out any burrs. If you don't already have a Dremel, this is a MUST HAVE for anyone that enjoys DIY work. There's so many attachments that can get you out of tight spots... mine has proven to be an invaluable asset in my tool arsenal. Not just for PC work, but just about any task you can imagine. For me, the Dremel makes the "impossible" possible. [/QUOTE]
