Eduardo blew some of the 2' x 12' galvanized, corrugated steel roofing
material off of my barn, and I had to replace most of 2 sheets.

I didn't have any power on Saturday to cut it off, so I just nailed it
up and let it run long off the eave of the roof, but now I have to cut
it off flush with the rest of the roof.

Can anyone tell me what I should use to cut this stuff?

My brother (a contractor) says I should just put a plywood blade into
my circular saw backwards, wear safety goggles and earplugs, grit my
teeth and let 'er rip ... but somehow that sounds a little scary to me
on an 18' ladder.
....

What gauge material? If it's anything heavier than 26, for just a few
sheets I'd go w/ the Sawzall metal blade if it's in place already.
I've heard of the other "trick" but no experience w/ trying it. I
might try one on the ground to see what works. Any way to stay on the
roof and work from the top instead of off the ladder?

BTW, I thought Ed only had 50-ish mph winds by the time it got there or
was there a local spawned t-storm? Or is this an open barn that the
wind can get under the roof? Seemed like shouldn't have lost much for
what I heard of the storm so wonder if was adequately fastened down
initially...just a thought/consideration from far away.
