Thank you Matthew. I was pretty sure I wasn't missing anything. but it helps to confirm.
I did see the folding over method, but the kick plate I'm using was free. Come to think of it, the stainless steel plates also came from a free kick plate. Wierd.
I started to cut the kick plate up and have found the abrasice disks do pretty well, but I can not recommend the flex shaft attachment for a rotozip. I had two of them tonight and both stopped working in minutes. First one I think the shaft seperated inside because when it was on the tool, it stopped turning the wheel before it got more than 2 inches of cut. Took that one back and got a replacement. that one got maybe 10 inches of cutting done when the shaft sheard completely off. Took that one back too. I guess I'll have to dig up a dremel and use that. but I feel pretty good that I'll be able to get these loops knocked out when I have a working tool.
And based on the reading I've done, it sounds like the suits I'm making should be good for the christmas play they are intended for and the Boffer game I play.
