Baileigh Shear Operational?

Hello,

I was wondering if the larger shear is operational? I’ve seen it in the corner of the general use space, but haven’t seen anyone use it. I have a piece of galvanized sheet metal (48") I need to cut, and it is too wide for the smaller stomp shear.

Thanks,

Matthew

@Mrholthaus should know that answer…

The bailey should work if you are cutting more than maybe 1/2" off the edge, to there seems to be more slop in the top blade and sometimes it folds the part rather than shear it. You really need to jump on the foot plate.

20 gauge if will cut full length but you need to jump in the right spot. Also you can’t cut on an edge , it’ll fold. I have cut very short lengths of 16 gauge but it’s not recommended
