strangely enough they are called mini hack saws. Larry being a Snap-on kind of guy will have a hack saw that lets you turn the blade 90 degrees and lock it down again. The ends on a Snap-on saw are rectangular shaped and you can turn them 90 degrees at a time on each end until you complete 360 degrees. That way the frame won't be in the way. ----- Original Message ----- From: robert moore To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 12:14 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Foam Insulation sheets
If you go with a hack saw blade I would get one of those handles that you put the hack saw blade in and it makes it kind of like a knife The blade sticks out the front so you can make a long cut without the frame of a standard hack saw getting in the way. Not sure what you call these. Have only seen one or two in my life but I am sure that you could get them at just about any place that caries tools. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Michael Baldwin Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2007 9:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Foam Insulation sheets Hacks saw blades work very well.

My mom has been complaining about not having an insolated garage door. It is one of those metal doors that is made up of a series of metal panels. The inside edges are double broken to a depth of 1&1/4". The inside dimensions of these panels is 41&5/8" long and 18&5/8" high. Although the package of insulation panels proclaims "fits all standard garage doors." I know I will need to do some trimming and fitting. I have a square and a straight edge so I am not to concerned about getting it straight and even. My question is, what the hell do I cut this stuff with? Everything I own except for a couple of really good pocket knives and my new PC Circ saw is designed for cutting metal.
