I just started framing with steel. I work on residential projects and am starting to use 20 guage steel for finished basements. I originally used snips, then a jig saw with bimetal blade. I never got into the abrasive chop saw due to sparks and noise. In many cases, it is way to dramatic of a way to cut steel when you are working in someones basement. I then came across this shear. I don't think it could be any better. Cuts effortlessly, cleanly and totally silent. You do have to have the stud lined up perfectly to fit through the shear guide, but it just takes one or two cuts to get the hang of it. I recomend this product with no hestitation, hard to think there is a better, faster, cleaner and more efficient way to gut 20 or 25 guage steel.

This is a well made tool that saves me countless hours. I've installed nearly 1000 studs and track with this tool. The cuts are clean and very quick. It keeps the job moving.

Wow-

Arrived on time in factory box. worth every penny and I would order from this Company again.

I bought this online because nobody stocks these. Everyone here uses a chop saw to cut studs. If you use one of these you will never want to use a saw again. This unit is heavy duty commercial quality. It gives great clean cuts with no burrs, is faster and cleaner than a power saw, and no noise factor. This unit will pay for itself the first day on the job!
