Following that exchange I'm now the owner of a DeWalt DW303K 240v saw. Why DeWalt? Well, it was on good offer (60% of the price of the equivalent Milwaukee Sawzall) and I've had good experiences with

In the past I've used an angle grinder or cutoff saw for cutting bar or angle. The angle grinder may not be pretty but it gets the job done, and you can always dress up your mistakes afterwards! Nowa

Not sure what size that is ... but if a chop saw or angle grinder will do the job, that's probably what I'd use. I use my Sawzall clone (from HF) mostly on things like wood and stucco, and on places

The keys, IMO, to cutting metal with a Sawzall: a) Choose the right tooth pitch (10tpi, 14tpi, rarely 18tpi) b) Make sure to use a long enough blade. c) And oil it! John.

Nick, A sawzall is a great tool - if we are talking about the same "sawzall". It is basically an electric reciprocating saw - the blade moves in and out. The are fairly big an heavy - and actually wo

One thing I've come across lately is a circular saw blade called the Morse "metal devil". It cuts metal like it's wood. It doesn't grind it, it actually makes chips. I just recently bought one, and I

Plasma cutter. A good one can cut 16 ga sheet at 200"/ min -- about as fast as a circular saw cuts plywood. It should leave an edge that doesn't need further work.

You may want to invest in a an air powered nibbling tool for cutting a lot of sheet metal siding. The crew that finished my last barn liked theirs a lot and they are quite fast and leave smooth edge

I'll second that suggestion. Mine is great. Noisy as hell, but works just fine on sheet metal. You'll probably want an in-line oiler for it, and it *will* get the metal oily.
