I have put a 100,000 miles on it already. I made up a two and half foot pedestal and bolted it to the cement floor. The cuts are straight and clean with no sharp edges on the stainless I am using.Price Value Quality -

Review by Clara -
When my shear arived, I first had to partially disasemble and reassemble it because of several loose parts. Once I had fixed it, I noticed one of the screws that adjusts the blade was broken and stuck in place. This must have happened while it was being initially assembled, because the paint had been applied over the broken screw, making it even more stuck. This prevented me from being able to adjust the blade. When I tried to cut a sample piece of 18 gauge mild steel sheet, the blade warped after cutting only a half inch into the sheet and was totally ruined. I immediately returned the shear and won't be buying from Eastwood again.Price Value Quality -
A great time saver.

We purchased this Economy Throatless Shear for our company's Engineering protoype shop. It works very nice for curved or straight cuts. Metal distortion from shearing the material is minimal. This along with with the brake we purchased at the same time, allows us to make prototype parts in house. This saves much time and money over sending out simple parts to a job shop.Quality Price Value -

Review by jcautocraft -
This is an imported tool. I bought it at 50% off, so how bad could it be. I took it apart, cleaned off the blue paint, regreased and adjusted the blades. It works perfectly.Quality Price Value
I got a great deal and the tool performs nicely.
Eastwood should make this one here in the USA.
Thanks again for great tools and service. JC
