hi,
Some questions on cutting stainless. I have an angle grinder with an attachment for cutting metal, it's probably a bit dangerous but it works well. I can get extra thin disks suitable (and advertised) for cutting stainless, but I wondered about the heatlth risks. It doesn't seem that healthy to breathe dust containing chromium and nickel which has burned. The same question about using a plasma torch. Second question, can anyone suggest a cheapish method for cutting 3 mm = 1/8 inch stainless sheet? I don't want to cut that much, but a bit more than would be comfortable with a hacksaw. Thanks, -- Peter Fairbrother |
