[Rhodes22-list] Stainless Steel Cutting Question

[Brad Haslett]

Dave,

Did you use the carbide or diamond wheel or "just a wheel".  I need to buy a
small piece of stainless sheeting for practice and to make the scab patch
with.  I'd like to avoid buying a $20 wheel if it isn't going to hack the
job.
