Re: Need help to find a tool, kinda urgent

I'm by no stretch of the imagine an expert on tools. I've been able to rough cut fairly thick aluminum with a good jigsaw and the appropriate HSS blades. You can even cut curved paths if you are careful. You will want to adjust your saw properly and generously use cutting fluid but I have found the tool to be very flexible... I didn't see this mentioned so it probably isn't the right tool for the job but might beat a hacksaw.
