    exactly! and the cold cut blades dont flex much. abrasive blades can actually cut shitty angles due to the fact the blade flex's. the cold cut blades dont flex giving a more true cut, and it chips the material away instead of sparks (less fire hazard).

    agree 100%. take some 1.5 .120 and cut it down the center like the TC ones. i did the same style on my old truck and it worked great.
