Just yesterday, I saw this guy's big brother at the steel fab shop where I bought some "cut-off" (remnant) bar stock. It looked "same, same, only bigger", with a 4-foot blade, hydraulic clamp with 36-inch ram and 50 HP motor. Yours handles bar stock just as nicely as his handles I-beams; no fuss, no muss, no drama, just "steady as she goes, and I'll let you know when I'm ready for done..." Jolly good!
