[SEL] Drilling Square Holes

[Joe Prindle]

Hi Arnie,
There was talk about it on the Practical Machinist board several years ago and "those in the know" said it works well. I Have been able to avoid buying anything like that by making friends with a guy with a wire edm and a sinker edm. I don't ask him to do it very often, but when I walk into his shop with a piece in one hand and a case of Leinenkugel's in the other, he knows what I am up to.........
Cool video, you can learn a lot on Youtube. I am interested in improving my sheet metal fabrication skills and have been studying up on metal spinning. I am going to stock up on Band-aids and give it a try.

Folks,

I saw this over on the British old engine newsgroup.
I've never seen anything like it.  What's it called?

Has anyone here tried one of these?
How well does it work?  Where would one buy one?
