Default Shearing 18 gage stainless

Other suggestions?


If you can find a Di-Acro 12" shear, I think you'd be all set. They will
handle 16 gauge steel, so I think 18 gauge stainless would be OK. 4"
might even work with one of the large corner notching shears.


We'll see! I located a 12" Di-Acro here in town today. Soon as I can
corral my friend we'll bring a sample piece to try it. The seller
said he'd be glad to let us do that. He thinks it'll do the job. I'm
not so sure but I'm sure willing to be shown.
