Yup, and keep her steady, not both hands as far back as possibleWho pays $6 for a cutoff wheel? I usually do a gouge cut to line up the path but I admit I usually power through that gouge cut with the wheel about 1" deep into the metal.
Galvanized, Something ya really don`t want to cut with a torch or plasma.Actually on the thin stuff he was cutting I don't know why he didn''t use a plasma. With a clamped on fence you can make nice straight cuts

I have to think that people who make a living out of framing with steel studs just use hand shears. Mabey powered shears. Heat really messes with the product.Handheld bandsaw would be a better choice of cutoff tool
They do on interior light gauge stuff, exterior is heavy gauge, needs a saw.I have to think that people who make a living out of framing with steel studs just use hand shears. Mabey powered shears. Heat really messes with the product.
Shears are good for light, flat material. Anything that is thick, or has a bend in it, then you need a saw. Shears will distort the shape of the productI have to think that people who make a living out of framing with steel studs just use hand shears. Mabey powered shears.

Never worked with the stuff. In the video he is doing an interior wall. I didn't realize there was a difference. A wood stud on an interior wall is the same as a stud on an exterior wall though it probably does not have to be but is more of a dimension and stability thing that I can see steel offering in different gauges.They do on interior light gauge stuff, exterior is heavy gauge, needs a saw.
Yeah, it can range from 22 to 12 gauge. Done that crap for about 8 years until the firstNever worked with the stuff. In the video he is doing an interior wall.

I bought a 20 pack for $10 or something. Used one and threw the rest away. Promptly went back to using walters. $100 for a pack of 20 or 25.Also, their is quality differences between manufactures of cut wheels, grinding discs, flap wheels, wire wheels etc. You`ll pay more for the good stuff.
Because we all don't have plasma'sActually on the thin stuff he was cutting I don't know why he didn''t use a plasma. With a clamped on fence you can make nice straight cuts
