Re: metal cutting with a grinder

thanks rosy, clayfigur

yep, the grinder didnt work out, i had the material cut with a cutoff saw for 50bucks per cut

will try to post pics later, got real nice, solid angle bars from a junk shop . . . un, magandang estante na sya, kesa ung mga 12-16k priced na shelves being sold around

nga pala, will be opening a small auto supply shop in batasan area next week, simpleng inventory lang intially, baka di ko pa kaya ma-provide ung mga hardcore spare parts needs ni jay, but we'll get there. . .

Re: metal cutting with a grinder

Hi again sir rolly, first of all congrats to your new venture.

I don't know if you are into metal forming or woodworking, coz in my case
I usually use my cut-off machine when cutting thick angle bars,tubulars and GI pipes and even channels, its more precise and faster, walang kahirap hirap.

WOW:eek: ang mahal pala magpaputol ng bakal sa inyo, mag invest
ka nalang sa isang cut off saw, if you are on a tight budget get a
BLACK & DECKER OK rin performance ng mga power tools nila.
Most of my power tools are BLACK & DECKER and it has not failed
me even once and also a bit cheaper than DEWALT:rolleyes:

Yuong nabili kong DEWALT cut off machine nuon medyo mataas
ang presyo, almost 10K nagsisi nga ako coz I saw a BLACK & DECKER
in a popular mall for 7.5K only.

Its not gonna be a waste of money, you'll be using that in the future.
Congrats again and good luck sa auto shop mo.

Check this site out. They reviewed the Top Ten Metalworking tools of 2010. A chop saw manufacturer made it inside.

Yes warranties are very important when buying tools. At least you have something to hold on or
a proof coming from the manufacturer about the quality of their product.

Natumbok mo sir ossie, using the right tools for the right job.;)
