Metal Cutting...anyone else?
« on: February 27, 2011, 11:24:24 pm »
Here are a couple I have done.  Have done them out of brass, copper and aluminum.  Just wondered if anyone else does much in metal.

I have cut brass and stainless for Christmas ornaments and key chains but only a few times.  This was the 1st one I did .. sorry about the quality of the picture - did not have a good camera then.

Awesome, I have never cut metal, What type of blades did you use and at what speed did you set your saw at?

I may be trying to cut some aluminum very soon. I visited a lady the other day and she asked what she could do with an old Hiway 'Caution' sign her son and his buddies brought home many years ago!
Seems like it was about 3/16" thick so would make some nice stuff.
Have to sand off the 'yellow' on one side!
