Ok ok i meant ones you feed the part in yourself to make curved cuts. Yes the vertical bandsaw pictured is awsome. I used one at school all the time.

I want a power hammer. Hammering for 4 hours to make a knife gets old

I do understand. But I dont or any shop Ive worked in, ever needs that. Use a torch, plasma, or a cnc cutter.

I weld for a living, So, thats why I never see them. Too slow, and you have to babysit them. In any shop including my garage, I just set the saw and go do something else while it cuts.

In every shop Ive seen I have never seen one vertical saw for cutting metal.

I true metal cutting bandsaw is a horizontal saw. Or metal cutoff saw. It clamps the metal, and miters it to what you need. They are gravity fed or power fed. Air cooled or have a cooling setup.

I have a propane forge. I use it to heat and bend metal of course but it is a great garage heater too.

IM sure my garbage collector thought I was cooking meth or something for a few weeks haha

Its fun, and frustrating too haha. The hardest part is getting it started.

What I did was get the super thin utility ones, then put them sharp edge to edge. Use 4-5 amps no filler and a .040 tungsten. I wear 5 shade googles to see it. At my work we are doing a big job for the army corp of engineers. Ive put down hundreds of pounds of 1/16 wire. No joke like a 45 pound...

Ok let me let me find my cert card that says i can do that too, all position including over head! and I have a cert for gmaw all position Want me to post pics of 2 razor blades I tig welded? or 2 pop cans?

Ok so Markw wanted me to prove I can weld 3/8s plate vertical up and pass a bend test so here ya go

YOu need to drill a hole at each end of the crack then weld it. THat will keep the crack from spreading

FYI, not all welding produces slag

Get a wire feed. You can do thin to thick with it. I have a lincoln 135t. Its a 110 volt model and will weld any thickness I need. JUst do the right prep, bevel, preheat and youre good. I did a structural bend test with it on 3/8s plate vertical up with hard wire and no preheat. Bent just fine.
