CUTTING THIN BRASS AND COPPER WITH A POWERMAX45

Post by enzed »

Can I cut 22 gauge (0.7 mm) brass sheet and 25 gauge (0.5 mm) copper sheet cleanly with a Powermax45? If so, at what settings?

Thanks very much Robertspark. Your references provide valuable information and confirm some of my suspicions.

I would never have guessed cutting copper or brass could be such a PITA.
