Boat building was much more fun.. Probably circular saw blades that will do a clean cut. Not sure, as I never did metal with one, but have done brick/concrete. Billy Mays shilled something called the Dualsaw, with 2 circular blades counter-rotating. But you should be done with the snips by now, so you saved some money. --Vic I got it cut. To make it lay flat, I had to haul a 4 X8 sheet of ply up on top of the camper. Then I hauled concrete blocks up the ladder to put on the ply sheet to weight it down, It works but is a PITA. It is effin hot out. The dogs look at me with those "You aren't going to make me go out there eyes". They have good sense stayin in the AC.. |
