Read the weight on the 30" brake.
This is a monster and garage kept.
I had to dissasemble mine to get it into the basement.
Luckily, I have wheels for it as well as an anchor to secure it when
using the shear.
I have cut 0.08" aluminum, but it pushes the unit to the limits. I
expect to break something if I keep doing that. Even the steel at
the rated thickness is an effort to shear.
