Save yourself a lot of aggravation. Do not buy anything from "Harbor
Fright". All they sell is junk and it never works like they say. You would
have a lot more fun throwing the money in your toilet and watching it
swirl
around as you flush.


Harbor Freight has a $35 cutting tool that can handle the job according
to the advertised specs. It sorta, kinda looks like an angle grinder,
except that it has a short arm and a reciprocating tooth out one side.
I figure I can drill a 3/8" hole, clamp a 2x4 to each side of the sheet
as guides, and just make a run with the cutter. Anyone have experience
with these things? Do they leave a clean edge?

I think it is pretty obvious from the prices that the stuff you get from
Harbor Freight is not "top of the line". That said, I have bought a lot of
stuff from them that works just fine. My air powered pop rivet gun has
built 3 airplanes so far. I only paid $39.00 for it. My band saw has cut
anything I have need to cut on 3 airplanes. The snowmobile casters that I
bought from them hold my Pulsar just fine and allow me to put it in the T
hangar, behind the pole, and still fit my Waco in too.

It is a bit of an overstatement to say that nothing Harbor Freight sells
works.
