Cutting a 22 GA steel plate

[Aloha_Shooter]

We're in the process of building air rifle traps for the Pikes Peak Council and wanted to try a some 22 gauge steel plate from Big R. The plate is 12"x24", we'd like to cut it in half. Is there anyone in Colorado Springs that could help us with that? We're figuring it's going to be pretty ugly if we have to use a hacksaw by hand and if this works, we'll probably want to do a few more.


Thanks in advance.

If memory serves, Colorado Hack does that kind of work...

22ga is Sheetmetal, can be cut with shears.

you can use a fiber blade in a skill saw.

Or try a $20 air nibbler from harbor freight if you have a compressor.

Pretty thin sheet metal too. I hope you aren't wanting this to stop any projectiles.

It's a bb / airgun. I'd double stack the whole thing.

I can zip it in half on the plasma table for you. PM me.
