SB: metal roofs

["Rey Arbolay" <TXH2344@mynra.com>]

About cutting the metal. I originally bought the recomended 
carbide tipped blade designed for this purpose. Is is useless. The 
blade skips, runs, overheats the metal (even if you cut really 
slow) and is loud as hell. Then a friend recomended the metal cut 
off blades they sell in packs of 10 at your local hardware stores. 
They are more like a thin grinding wheel than a blade, but they 
work sweet. You have to slow down or you will abrade the blade 
quickly. Recomend you buy the contractor 10 pack(for about 11 
dollars). you will go thru couple of blades before getting the 
hang of it.
