What this tool is for

The Fletcher 3100 is for a workshop that needs a dedicated vertical station and must switch among material-specific heads. Choose it when your regular framing work also includes documented substrates such as thin aluminum sheet or aluminum composite.

Choose the head and read the limit separately for each sheet. The stated aluminum sheet limit is different from the composite panel limit, and the 3000 turret uses a different tool arrangement.

Documentation

Questions about this tool

Can I plan around the same limit for aluminum sheet and composite?

Use Fletcher’s separate specifications for the two substrates. Each uses its documented tool and thickness limit.

Do I have to attach it to a wall?

Fletcher describes an optional stand. Confirm what is included and use the maker’s installation requirements.

When would a 3000 make sense instead?

Compare the 3000 if your routine work fits its span and dedicated glass, acrylic and board turret.
