Yeah, gotta agree there. I think some of my other tools could do a lot more damage than a guillotine! Good point from Wizard though. Hopefully the enco 12" shear does what I need and that'll be the end of it.

That's funny. That's exactly what I ordered earlier today (12" version). I came here to post an update that I bought one and then of course I see the free shipping promo. Oh well. That shear seems to get really good reviews and it looks like I could build a little table to go on the side of...

Lakc, I was wondering about that myself. I know I've used some of the old heavy duty paper shears before and thought they might work for the thin stuff I need to cut. .016 brass and .020 aluminum is probably the top of the thickness range I would need to cut and it wouldn't be that often...

RonGinger, What you say seems to be inline with a lot of other forum posts and reviews I've read. It makes sense. Usually machines that are built to try to tackle multiple jobs don't do any of them well. Especially at the low pricepoint. Mosey, you're doing exactly what I'm doing. Like you...

Thanks guys! It seems like for the price, the 3 in 1 is probably the way to go. Shouldn't be stressed too much w/ softer thin sheet. Basically getting the slip roller and brake for free compared to the cost of some stand alone shears. I like the smaller size. I hadn't noticed they had the...

Hi, Newb to the forum here. Can anyone suggest a small (maybe larger?) metal shear for cutting brass (in the .016 inch thck) and thin aluminum (maybe 22 gauge)? Ideally with some sort of table to assist in squaring. I've been looking at the little chinese 3 in 1's and the 8" brake/shear...
