Tool review: Craftsman Dual Cutter saw
Read a lil bit about this new tool & decided to give it a closer look.
Says it can cut wood, mild steel bars/angles/pipe, thin stainless, soft metals, sheet rock, & a whole slew of other materials.
Uses two counter rotating blades in a handheld saw thats very similar to a 6" grinder in design.
Sooo, I broke down this weekend & bought one. Price was a bit much, but it paid off.
It is AWESOME!! I have used the composite metal cutting blades in a skill saw to cut sheet metal, & of course the sabre saws. They do OK, but this thing blazes thru body panels like nothing & the cuts are clean & precise.
You get some sparks but just slow down & that goes away. It generates very little heat, minmizing heat warpage. Makes cleaner cuts than a plasma cutter & doesn't need to be dressed with a grinder.
Next to my Lincon welder, this has to be my most valuable tool.I dig ALL cars, old & new, whether they were hammered out of american iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.
But thats just my opinion.
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
