I'm looking for an improvement in our current method of pneumatic driven chisel gun. The copper nickel alloy is fairly soft. It is in an area that has old motor oil close by, thus low heat (note, can't clean up the oil because it is behind the plate we're removing). There are occasional pockets of asbestos, which necessitates a low dust method. I have a lot of this stuff to get off, some is detailed work. I've thought about waterjet cutters, but haven't hit on a workable solution. Your comments and suggestions greatly appreciated!
