Hi,

Got some 1 1/4 x 1/8" angle iron to cut, up to a dozen cuts and
thinking of a good way to cut it.

Anyone done this using a 9" angle grinder with a cutting disk or a
reciprocating saw? If so how easy was it and did it need lots of discs
or blades?

I'd expect the best way would be a chop saw, but it doesn't really
have any other uses once I've cut the angle and the above tools can be
used for other things.

I could make an angle grinder stand from some angle to make things
easier, does anyone know what thread the handle usually is as the
mounting holes either side would be a good way to attach it to the
stand.

cheers,
Pete.


I had to dispatch 60 school desks last week and I used a 4 inch angle
grinder to cut the legs at the formed bends. Took me about 4 hours to
collapse the legs of the desks. A lot less work than using a hacksaw.

HTH
