That works great!

I was skeptical other rodents would take much more but this one sliced through 18 acres like butter. In fact, I had to slow down, otherwise the cut would be in a completely different place. The cut out details are very small and messy, but I used a magnetic brush and missed. Wear safety goggles as computers can go anywhere.

Pros
  • Eat through sheet metal without deforming the edges
Cons
  • Expensive

Works perfectly!

It was used to cut many 20 gauge steel and auto body panels. Works fantastic. I run the air compressor at about 110 psi. Cuts smooth and evenly. The only downside is the small, very sharp, semi-circular shavings it spits out. They dig into the soles of my boots. I spent about 20 minutes picking them all out of my last pair of shoes. Lesson: SWEEP FLOOR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.

Pros
  • For cold rolled steel up to 17 gauge.
Cons
  • light

Difficult to follow scribe line

This is a very high quality tool. It cuts very well on 18 gauge CR steel which I use for old auto patch panels. The only problem I have is that there is no mark on the cutter for you to follow the line. To cut a straight line, it's best if you can clamp a straight edge (wood or steel) to a fence. If you try it by hand, you will most likely end up with a wavy cut line. It cuts really fast and yes it produces a lot of little crescent shaped shreds but I don't see that as a problem. When I cut…

Pros
  • Cuts at over an inch per second with unrivaled balance
Cons
  • Not sure
