Good morning all,
I am considering adding a some type of horizontal bandsaw machine to my shop.
This machine would be used to cut structural steel and bar stock to length. It would be used for both rough cutting and finish size cutting.
Currently I am using a combination of corded jig saw, abrasive cut-off ( which I do not like for many breasons ) hand sawing with hack saw or flame cutting.
My shop space is not large but could accomodate an older iron horizontal saw.
Material sizes would range from 6" channel, beam, tube, angle over all down to small rounds 1/2"ish.
I have seen a couple DoAll C-12 units on the net. I have a DoAll vertical contour saw and absolutely love it!.
The C-12 is on the large size, any other DoAll's or other good saws that one should consider?
What suggestions or machines do you all like and use tgat would work for my application.
Thank you,
Rick
