Can I saw some grade-2 nuts in a bandsaw?
-Like,,, without greatly hurting the blade?
I need some half-height 3/4x10 nuts. A regular nut sliced in half would be just about perfect, but I dunno if it would ruin a bandsaw blade or not (dry blade, no coolant). I also have an angle grinder w/cutoff wheels, but the bandsaw would be somewhat of a more-controllable cut to do. I also have some scrap metal and a 3/4-10 tap, but I have no method for ensuring the tap enters perpendicular, and I need the nuts to sit flat. I am guessing that the already-made nuts are straighter than what I could manage to do... |
