I like it!
Ran a 40' [yes feet] Gray long time, in a mold shop. If you've wondered how garage door seals and such were made....some are extruded now-a-days but many of the old molds still are run.
I'd bring in a planer if one turns up, 10' or so. A great, economical, way to produce press brake dies. The single point cutters don't impart so much stress like milling cutters, or needing to be straightened.
Sincerely,
