Re: What is your weapon of choice?
Wheres the vote vote for tnt? It might not be a clean cut, but it will definitely remove any excess.

Re: What is your weapon of choice?
all of the above! lol my most common tool of attack lately has been the Mac 1/4" angle grinder with a cutoff wheel. its small size makes it very easy to control.
for bigger jobs, i reach for the trusty sawzall.

Re: What is your weapon of choice?
For big stuff I like the torch but for most of my cutting work on my truck's I grab the Makita sawzall or 4 inch grinder. The 7 1/2 inch DeWalt grinder is great too nothing stop's it.

Re: What is your weapon of choice?
I use my sawz-all most of the time but if it's too thick I'll either use the grinder or tun the welder way up and burn through. I wish I had torches but I can't justify the price of them and the tanks for all the more I'd use them.

Re: What is your weapon of choice?
The plasma is my favorite, but the sawzall will always have a place in my heart.
