    Your not joking about that noise. I do not think I have ever created a louder racket than that, not to mention the shrapnel that it would throw even with an enclosed metal saw. I ended up buying a guillotine type sheer with the dies/blades of the profile of metal that I used....but that had its own issues.

    Did yours have a good clamp down for the sheet? I bought one that didn't have a good clamp. After I made a full profile clamp for it and converted it to hydraulic instead of manual it became a pleasure to cut dozens of sheets per day. We had it mounted on the rear of a trailer.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products
