Well I actually own one. I tried using it to make a cut on the box
steel but it didn't work so well. Probably a higher tooth count blade
would have helped. Anyway.... once I got started cutting things with
the hacksaw I just kept at it. Too many other details rambling around
my heeeed. I just didn't pause to think of a better way to make the
cuts. I was more concerned with, like "which wire triggers on the
power supply relay"? Or "how the H*** am I going to transfer the angle
needed for the carrier?" Or "exhaust system? I gotta do that too?.....
Ahhhhhhh!"

  ;)

Thanks though.  :)

Neil.
