Thumbs up Blu-Mol Metal Cutting Blades

I cut a lot of 1/8" thick steel sheet stock to make brackets...



The bands for my horizontal and vertical bandsaws are expensive, so I like to use a saber saw fitted with good quality metal cutting blades whenever I can.

I've had good results with Blu-Mol brand blades...they're made for cutting metal more than 1/8" thick, and cost about 50 cents each, retail. They're made here in the USA...

Thanks, my buddy says he is having a problem cutting the brackets for my wheelie bars. 1/4" sheet metal brackets to mount them onto. Right one time with this post.

I bought a ten-pack of these at Home Depot for around $5...they're rated for 'metal more than 1/8" thick' and they go through 1/4" sheet like a hot knife through butter...unbelievable quality for 50 cents each.

They're made by Disston Tools...
