4 different customer service reps told me that even tho the delivery truck might have a lift gate, they wouldn't use it because of the size of the crate. It has to be delivered to a business with a loading dock, and unloaded with a forklift. They kept telling me...it is their policy. It has to be unloaded with a forklift. Burnsville is the closest dealer. And they don't have one, they'd have to order it. That's 75? miles away. Just as soon not drive thru or around Murderapolis to go pick one up. When I bought my Laguna bandsaw from Acme last year, I just drove to their warehouse and picked it up. The last time I asked them about the jointer, they said it would work the same way. -
I have a miter saw I bought off of CL set up to cut aluminum, with a 12" aluminum cutting blade on it. Cutting aluminum is pretty easy, but it makes a Big mess with all the aluminum shavings. They're hard to clean up. Cutting that small of a piece, put a board under it to fully support it over any softer plastic insert on a miter saw. I do aluminum cutting outside, and one day I sent such a small piece flying about 75 feet after the insert flexed and the blade grabbed it. I felt lucky it didn't hit flesh. If you have time in the project, send it to me and I'll cut it for you and send the piece back. I work with aluminum fairly often. -
I posed the question to my brother who has worked with aluminum for years, fab and welding. He said with a fine tooth blade on the ts, with the blade turning, coat it with bar soap and run the piece of aluminum thru slowly. -

A woodcutting chopsaw is supposed to be able to cut aluminum easily. I would hold it in place with a clamp for the cut. -
I need to cut a 1 1/2" long section of this 1" square aluminum bar. How would you cut it to insure you get a nice square cut? Thanks for your help in advance!
