[TheForge] Cutting Technique

[Ron Childers]

Ruuf, 

 

Try a circular saw with the cutting depth set just a couple of mm deeper
than the material you are cutting. I think you will find even the cheaper
blades will last longer, cut faster and there is less wear on the tool.

Been cutting some 6mm plate with my angle grinder. I notice sometimes I wear
the cutting disc out rather rapidly. Is there a best industry practice /
technique?
