I found the wood blade that came with my Skill band saw wanted to rip the thin aluminum. I use a fine tooth metal blade and it works fine - just don't try to cut steel with it. I also put a couple of scotchbrite wheels on a polishing motor I bought at Harbor Freight. The motor has a small body and give a little more room to work around the wheels. Once you get use to feeding the wheels it makes for fast work.

Default tool kit

If I didn't already have most of the tools I need I would buy what Dave12 is selling, you are saving enough to upgrade to a pneumatic squeezer.
