I am thinking of using a paper cutter for thin aluminium on my Murphy Moose.
I think that I want replaceable blades(?). How wide should I buy? Any
favorite brands/sources? Why?

Thanks!

They work great on .020, not sure they would chunk stuff much bigger
than this. The blades on most are removable, and therefore easily
sharpened. I use the one at the office! Lay out the rolls of aluminum
on the carpeted floor, do the long cuts with my Matco shears, and cut
the little chunks, for rib reinforements and blanks, brackets and the
like with the paper cutter.

Thanks, I have found a neighbor with a 52" foot shear(!) that he offered me
the use of.
