Thanks for the tip! We all stand to learn a bit from each other if we can just sit still and listen
You can also take a old,dull, framing saw blade,.. Something that’s ready to be tossed,.. Turn it to spin opposite of intended cut side,.. Put it on your skill saw and cut away. Nice cut,.. Makes use of already payed for garbage saw blade. Where eye/ear protection the db’s produced are screeching.
Darn, all that money I have spent on those fiber wheels and I had the diamond version just sitting there doing nothing….suffice to say come tomorrow I am changing my blades, thank you.
Hi John . . . Following on from my earlier comment 7hrs. ago – Let you know – Just cut 40 sheets using a diamond cutter – – absolute piece of cake – – Great tip & thanks again . Have a good one .
That was really satisfying to watch! Thank you.
There’s a blade for skilsaw that only has a dozen or so, slots from the outer edge towards the center & no teeth. As it spins it cuts off little notches of the sheet metal. It’s made specifically for light ferris sheet metal. I have had the one blade for about 30 years, & cut thousands of feet of up to 18gage sheet metal panels.
Great suggestion, might want some ppe though and clamp that sheet down, if it bites it could get ugly
I honestly enjoy the comments/arguments more than the video itself..thank you for this
Bought one today and still going after about 32 cuts. Love it!!
great channel mate, glad I found you, I’ve subbed. Yoshi in Queensland
Great info. I did find something interesting. Those “other” cut off wheels are actually great for cutting plastic, Plexiglas, and acrylic lighting panels.
Use a metal cutting blade in a circular saw end of conversion.
Now THIS is useful posting! Many thanks.
Good one . . . thank you very much – just about to start cutting a load of sheeting . Thanks again .
Great information as I will be cutting cladding will by one thanks for sharing 👍🇦🇺🚜
and yes didn’t notice any change in the disc size as stated, I was most surprised at the speed it cut considering I’d used the other discs he mentioned that shrank in size, I even tried the nibbler! Much appreciated the advice given!
Thanks for that. I have been getting through the normal metal discs like anything. Will try it next week, From Cyprus
Yeah, I’ve had one of those in my drawer for cutting tile also, shouda known, that diamond tip will last forever as long as you don’t try to cut another diamond blade with it.
I don’t know, man. Looks like it’s burning your sheet.
Great tip, thanks….I’ll be putting my leather gloves on btw.
