Re: PO has me PO'd
for some reason my narrative went away between pictures
This is about the tightest arc you can cut with a 1 1/2 inch cut off wheel, I like to sneak up on it, leaving a little white paint to see my line The wheel generates a lot of heat quickly, so touch the metal, if you can’t hold onto it, then your cutting too quickly and you may warp the metal I generally cut right, with my contact area of the wheel at 4 o'clock, don't force it as you may explode your wheel, not pretty It's a slow process but far more accurate than my big dangerous angle grinder, that thing scares the begeases out of me

Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks for following, Bud
 1679008946258155857158489269465 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06This seems to be starting point for each piece Could not bend the 45 degree without warping the entire panel, so I pu the 45 on the flange
