Default cutting sheet aluminum on 12 inch wood bandsaw

As a electronic guy I often need to cut 1/16-3/16" & sometimes 1/2
small pieces of Aluminum, I
have a Craftsman cast iorn 12" bandsaw.



for what it's worth, I have a wood cutting bandsaw and when I need to cut
aluminum I cut it just fine, same coarse blade, etc - just feed slowly so
you don't damage the blade - I'm sure a metal cutting fine toothed blade
would be better
