A GENUIS HACK - all under 2 minutes - WHAT??? Some of these long winded TH-camr's should take note from you! Thank you for keeping it quick and simple!!!
Glad I found this video before the project. Found this video two days ago and installed my my corrugated roof on my deck yesterday. This works perfectly. Great time and money saver. Thanks again!
GREAT VIDEO. this is the kind of video that is wanted. I am so sick and tired of the sales videos for some outlandish specific expensive tool instead of what you can do with what you already have. Thank you. My tiny roof over my steps thanks you.
Thank you. I installed corrugated metal under my kitchen bar and it turned out great. really loud. suggest wearing ear plugs like you said. thanks again.
I used this method with the same blade type. It cut a 12 foot panel length like butter. Make sure you have headphones and eyeglasses on. It was loud even with big noise cancelling headphones on.
I use my angle grinder with a metal disk blade (no teeth) that has diamond coating on the edge for cutting--- lasts a lot longer than the cheaper disks and safer. Anyway, I can cut shapes with an angle grinder if needed, or just straight. This method with the skill saw looks faster and straighter. I've seen people on job sites use this trick for cutting wrong materials before. Nice video.
Can you do it with the table saw? Just the same method? Take the blade off turn it around and make your cut? That way you can use the fence to keep it straight
Its the Little things in life I spent hours yesterday looking for my metal blade in my shed that is a disaster watch this video this morning now I can finish my doghouse thank you my good sir :-)
Thank you. This saved me from having to buy an expensive "metal" blade. It worked for me quite well. Now all I need, is to find a simple way to cut square holes for electrical outlet boxes... I'm going to look for more videos! Edit: Sabre saw, use lipstick on edges of the electrical outlet or light switch box, push the panel into place and it will rough-mark it out from behind. Use a felt tip marker, again from behind to draw the lines to be cut. Voila.
Works great, plastic siding can also be cut this way. I'll bet a bunch of people will try this without hearing protection and be horrified with just how loud this actually is.
I have used a cordless Milwaukee circular saw what a Diablo blade cut a tire right off the rim and cut right through the rim was surprised how well at Diablo blade worked
OhmyGAWD. Thank you so much for this! And thank you for not making me wait 8 minutes before an actual demonstration! This is exactly what I needed and now I’m going to go try it!
just saw this useful video. Thnaks for making it....and short and sweet. Question colorbond corrugated roofing material. How to make the cut edge so it will not rust after the cut?
He used a wood saw blade and flipped it so the teeth are going in the opposite direction, I had to go back and listen for it to make sure I heard him correctly
kyRRrider halo sir,,may i ask,,my circular saw blade is for wood, is it ok to use this blade for tin sheet? blade is 71/4 24teeth carbide,,free from my circular saw..
thank you sir, I'm 63 yr old g'maw trying to make a chicken tractor and want to cut a piece of tin for one end, and can't do it with the tin snips I currently have. thnx for sharing.
Dude, thanks for the video. You sure got a smooth cut on that corrugated metal. I have found, however, that cutting steel seamless roofing with the saw blade in the normal position is much smoother and with less shrapnel. I tried it both ways recently using an old carbide-tipped 40 tooth blade and I'm sticking with the blade-forward method (rather than backward). "Different strokes...", as they say. ;)
TERRIFIC IDEA. Getting ready to make two garage doors and cover with the same roofing material you showed. This idea will save much time for me and give me a really accurate cut!!!
I'm sure there is a good trick to it. I mainly burry the cuts on any of the projects where I have used this technique. If I were to do it right now I would use a file or try rubbing it down with a metal pipe. Wear thick gloves of course.
True. Any cut on galvanized or painted sheet metal will allow rust. It's a good idea to paint that over with cold galvanizing compound or exterior paint.
That was extremely Quiet I know you turned the blade around but the noise of you moving the tin around was way louder than the saw cut if you don't turn the blade around it's like your ears are almost to the point of Bleeding what blade did you use for this video THANKS 👍🎉
It is unreliable to judge sound volume based on a video. Most microphones in cameras auto adjust depending on environment. The blade didn't make this any less loud. I used an inexpensive non carbide wood cutting blade.
I'm not entirely sure what would happen because I haven't tried. I would assume that the blade would try to cut too aggressively causing the saw to bind or jump. It really isn't a good idea to use a wood blade to cut metal without turning it around.
jmart874 I would carefully use a wire wheel or a flapper wheel on an angle grinder. Or I would try to cover the edges with a decorative piece. I don't know what would actually be the best. Best of luck to you.
yesterday i saw evolution blade's with carbite teeth. i was wondering...can you use them on regular circular saw?? its possible to have a different hole in center but ...i think on a lathe an adaptor can be made. whats your opinion ? ty for the video and your time
Isn't this likely to remove the tips from the blade. They are only braised on and reversing the blade may eventually have the tungsten tips come off at high speed.
Colin Riley You make a really good point, it has been a long time since I have made the video so I don't remember if I mentioned it. I'm using and old blade that doesn't have any tungsten tips. A tungsten blade would be a bad choice for this job no matter how you spin it. Thank you for the comment.
Oh my. This was among my first videos years ago. I have definitely learned a bit more about framing myself in the camera. Thanks for watching and I'm glad this old video still helps. Best wishes!

Sigh. Just feels incomplete without a 17 minute preamble about how roofing tin played a formative role in his childhood years.
EXACTLY !!

Love this video! Not too much talking just clear and accurate instructions and demonstration❤
Thanks. I tried this today and i worked amazingly well. Saved me so much time vs. My metal sheers and was left with a nice uniform edge.
Should be noted, it makes sparks. In a fire prone area, be sure to do it in a safe place and keep a bucket of water handy. Works great, thanks!
Woo hoo. Thanks for a straight forward right to the point video.
I'm currently demolishing a metal shed that's seen better days, this will be just what I needed, THANKS.
thanks man you saved me from buying a meal cutting blade just for one job.

Thanks for the information. Were building a fence and need to rip some metal roofing. This is a perfect solution without buying a specialty blade.
Great work straight to the point. You have saved me time and money. Appreciate it
Very nice, my tip is put one screw in the end you started your cut so the metal isn't moving
Thanks! I was going to use one of those metal cutting wheels, but I think I will try your idea this time.

what did she put you in for
Who knew! Turning a wood saw blade backwards in a circular is a simple and ingenious idea 💡
Straight to the point, thanks. Great tip with the blade.
Thank you for the short efficient video. Works great !!

No BS. Right to the point. I like it. Thank you, I`ll be subscribing.
Thanks man! Super simple and effective for my home decor project!
the examples of technique demonstrated in this video are invaluable, THX.

Amazing and simple. Thanks for posting.
Thank You ..Simple and straight forward..Not nervous any more...
just saw this useful video. Thnaks for making it....and short and sweet. Question colorbond corrugated roofing material. How to make the cut edge so it will not rust after the cut?
I'm no expert and I don't rightly know. I try to protect the cut side.
Paint it
excellent sir but .....wanted to know the types of blade saw
He used a wood saw blade and flipped it so the teeth are going in the opposite direction, I had to go back and listen for it to make sure I heard him correctly
It’s just a framing blade put on backwards. Don’t skip the eye protection or ear protection.
Thanks for information on cutting metal with a circular saw.☺️☺️👍👍👍
brilliant idea mate, just planing to cut some sheets and saw your clip,,Thanks
So the trick is just reversing the direction of the teeth on the wood blade??
I am needing to cut some metal in a few days, heard this would work, but wanted to make sure. Thanks for the video.
+kyRRrider You are welcome. Best of luck to you.
kyRRrider halo sir,,may i ask,,my circular saw blade is for wood, is it ok to use this blade for tin sheet? blade is 71/4 24teeth carbide,,free from my circular saw..
+Bernie Cantago That sounds like it would work. Best of luck to you.
@@danielacantago5428 Just have to remember to turn the blade around (backwards) and it'll (wear through) the metal just fine.
I really like your video that was effortless
I will try this next week after im done with my roofing job.
When cutting metal roof panels do you always cover the cut edge to prevent rusting in the open weather?
Wow thanks for posting dude!
thank you sir, I'm 63 yr old g'maw trying to make a chicken tractor and want to cut a piece of tin for one end, and can't do it with the tin snips I currently have. thnx for sharing.
Thanks for sharing that. It will help in the near future.
What kind of corrugated sheet metal is that? It seems smaller than the normal seize.
Nice tip, just like that. You just saved me some bucks.
Nice clean cut!
My Friend You are the BEST! You must have a briliand Brain...Please tell your Mother and Father from me CONGRATULATION for the SON.
What’s it do to the blade though?
Just saved me a trip to harbor freight
Dude, thanks for the video. You sure got a smooth cut on that corrugated metal. I have found, however, that cutting steel seamless roofing with the saw blade in the normal position is much smoother and with less shrapnel. I tried it both ways recently using an old carbide-tipped 40 tooth blade and I'm sticking with the blade-forward method (rather than backward). "Different strokes...", as they say. ;)
Flip the blade!! Genius!!
Glad it helps.
This was such a great hack!
So turning a wood blade backwards makes a good metal blade. Wow
You're a legend man!
wow so amazing and time saver, I love it ...
Thanks for the warning about metal fumes. I never eat beans before cutting metal, because the fumes can be overwhelming.
Cheese cutting 101
gotta ask, that wood frame you cut the metal on , is that a "Jig " for something ? is it just for cuttings like this ? It looks cool.
it's a jig specially made to NOT support properly the metal piece
can you make a video on how to weld that kind of sheet metal an give alittle info why is it toxi on the fumes
It is toxic because of the fumes from the galvanized coating.
Thats not galvanised, its a tin/zinc corrogated iron sheet if it was galvanised it wouldn't rust
Man this ain't nothing but cool. Thanks a Bunch!!!
Exelent cutting process brother i like it thank you
Is that wood blade?
It is a wood blade without carbide tips.
TERRIFIC IDEA. Getting ready to make two garage doors and cover with the same roofing material you showed. This idea will save much time for me and give me a really accurate cut!!!
Does it cause metal shavings?
How do you smoothe the edges after the cut?
I'm sure there is a good trick to it. I mainly burry the cuts on any of the projects where I have used this technique. If I were to do it right now I would use a file or try rubbing it down with a metal pipe. Wear thick gloves of course.
Super simple!!! Thanks!
Some blogger says that using this kind of tool in cutting metal sheets will generate rust in the cutted edges
True. Any cut on galvanized or painted sheet metal will allow rust. It's a good idea to paint that over with cold galvanizing compound or exterior paint.
@@waltsyd perhaps a clear flat non shiny sealer on the edges could offer assistance.
Thank you it’s a big help!
a handy tip, i have one for you, dont let the cord dangle dangerously near a revolving blade and youll live longer.
Wow first time i see it using circular saw
thanks for sharing this. I had heard of this but never saw it applied. Thanks Again
Thank you for this video. I am looking for the small size waves instead of the larger one. Any idea where a gal can get that? Or what it is called?
In Australia we call it “micro orb”: micro = small.
Thank for sharing 👍👍👍
Were you pulling small chunks of metal from your exposed skin after cutting that?
That was extremely Quiet I know you turned the blade around but the noise of you moving the tin around was way louder than the saw cut if you don't turn the blade around it's like your ears are almost to the point of Bleeding what blade did you use for this video THANKS 👍🎉
It is unreliable to judge sound volume based on a video. Most microphones in cameras auto adjust depending on environment. The blade didn't make this any less loud. I used an inexpensive non carbide wood cutting blade.
what happens if you don't turn the blade around?
I'm not entirely sure what would happen because I haven't tried. I would assume that the blade would try to cut too aggressively causing the saw to bind or jump. It really isn't a good idea to use a wood blade to cut metal without turning it around.
it is possible to do rounded/ diagonal cuts on plated metal?
Diagonal is possible but rounded cuts are really hard with a circular saw no matter what you are cutting.
Genius. Thank you.
looks great, but a piece of wood under the cutting lin helps. Jose
Is that blade carbide tipped or not?
It's not carbide tipped.
Nice! Thanks!
Is that a carbide blade?
No it isn't, i won't recommend using one.
Great Tip. Thanks.
Can I do this with angle grinder instead? I dont have a circular saw
Of course you can. Just use metal cutting disc. NOT grinding disc
Right on man thanks
With question to what brand the blade was. It works on any brand just reverse the blade.
what is the best way to smooth the edges after the cuts. Trying to make a outdoor bar.
jmart874 I would carefully use a wire wheel or a flapper wheel on an angle grinder. Or I would try to cover the edges with a decorative piece. I don't know what would actually be the best. Best of luck to you.
You can use a deburring tool. See th-cam.com/video/uHjEuSeo0fc/w-d-xo.html
yesterday i saw evolution blade's with carbite teeth. i was wondering...can you use them on regular circular saw?? its possible to have a different hole in center but ...i think on a lathe an adaptor can be made. whats your opinion ? ty for the video and your time
Thanks so much!
It’s often the simple things 👍 now try it under water haha good tip.
I would add a FULL face shield. But nice simple video.. thanks..
Isn't this likely to remove the tips from the blade. They are only braised on and reversing the blade may eventually have the tungsten tips come off at high speed.
Colin Riley You make a really good point, it has been a long time since I have made the video so I don't remember if I mentioned it. I'm using and old blade that doesn't have any tungsten tips.
A tungsten blade would be a bad choice for this job no matter how you spin it.
Thank you for the comment.
That's how my dad did that! Thank ya sir
Thumbs up! Have you considered moving the camera up just a bit? I got a good laugh at you crouching to be in frame. Thanks for the tips.
Oh my. This was among my first videos years ago. I have definitely learned a bit more about framing myself in the camera. Thanks for watching and I'm glad this old video still helps.
Best wishes!
Nice tip mate! Thanks!
JB
Thanks, super useful.
Very useful hint!
Thank you!
Thank you for this tip. Saved me time and money.
No sparks, no melted metal, and no special blade/saw I'll only use once. Thanks
thank you
