These blades are CHEAP, like $8-10 each. They do have a drawback though (unless I'm doing something wrong lol), in that you can't make cut after cut after cut since the blade heats up and then it won't cut - it just stops cutting. I could only make 2-3 cuts through the 1" 0.125 thickness steel and then had to let the blade cool for a bit. I thought it was a crappy blade, so I went and bought another one, and same thing.

Lucky for me, hubby is doing it all. We thought he was done last night, but then we realized that we forgot about the bar we were going to put along the bottom to help support the sump. So, one more piece this morning, and then I can clean it up and paint it.
