Default I just...

...watched a video and it cuts steel like butter with twin counter rotating carbide blades. I can't think of anything I need it for and will order one today...


Just sayin'

Default Okay....

for a rough cut. Large kerf and throws a LOT of metal chips. Wear your safety glasses and get the broom out.

Just could not stand not having one, so picked me up one yesterday at HF. Gives one the idea that it is very well made, pretty rugged looking and feeling. Now I just have to come up with something that needs cutting
