Review on πŸ”ͺ Irwin 7-1/4-Inch Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade: Efficient & Precise 68-Tooth (4935560) by Luis Blaschko

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worked great! for blades

I needed to replace the gutters in my house and all the boards along the eaves but had a problem. The house already had a steel roof installed, but it was unevenly laid. This is an old house and was not built square so the owner must have tried to compensate by not trimming each leaf leaving a very noticeable zigzag pattern along the eaves. In some places it protruded over 4 inches above the eaves, causing some of the rainwater to overflow through the gutter. In order for the gutters to collect all of the rain runoff, I decided to trim the ends so they were in a straight line closer to the eaves. I found out about this blade through a video and tried it and it worked like a charm. It would have been easier to cut the metal before installation, but it was quick and left a relatively smooth finish. I have also used this blade to cut aluminum gutters to the correct length. This is a great product! Note: cutting metal is LOUD so I wore earmuffs and when cutting they squirt tiny bits of metal so you definitely need to wear long sleeves, gloves and goggles. I also wore a face mask to protect myself from flying metal parts. After that I painted over the cut ends with metallic paint to prevent rusting.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Can't remember
