That diamond wheel is for masonry, not metal. If you use it on AL it will

Thank you.
Why not use a bandsaw, the 4x6 model from Harbor Freight is a bargain, and
designed to cut metal.
You mean this one?

The problem with small bandsaws is you can't cut sizable sections out of
large sheet, for instance. I run into that problem a lot with my 4x6"
horiz-vert bandsaw. If all you will be cutting is small angle and
tubing, the bandsaw will work great, though.
