We have had happy times with our [3] Milwaukee portable band saws both corded & battery powered. Happily, cuts; Rail, Unistrut, EMT, PVC, MC, etc.  Call me lazy but there is nothing like a portable band saw on site.

Any suggestions for cutting rail with a Sawzall?  Many times at the end 
of a run of PVs there could be 5-6" of rail (in this case DPW P8).  I 
like to use a circular saw but sometimes I don't have enough clearance 
once the rail and panels are installed.  The sawzall works but I'm 
looking for a blade that doesn't load up with aluminum too fast and cuts 
without too much vibration.  Other ideas?

Thanks,

Bill
