nibblers
Those taking bites
Nibblers are people or things that nibble—taking small, repeated bites rather than large ones.
A nibbler might be someone who snacks lightly throughout the day rather than eating full meals: She's a nibbler, never finishes a whole plate.
In workshops, a nibbler is a hand tool or power tool that cuts sheet metal by punching out small pieces in rapid succession, allowing curved or intricate cuts without distorting the material.
