	My company is looking in to fabrication curtain wall. The reinforcement is rectangular steel tube. The largest that I have seen in this application is approximately 2 1/2 X 4 inches with 1/16 wall. That does not mean it will not change so a bed that is 12" wide should do. This tube in the USA come in 24 foot lengths. Most of what I have been able to come up with on these type presses are for flat sheet. Does anyone know of companies that produce a CNC Turret Press that would process long lengths of tube. Also would like recommendation for a production saw to cut the steel tube. __________________ Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a pretty, pristine body but rather to come sliding in sideways, all used up and exclaiming, "Wow, what a ride!"

	Behringer makes a good saw. We use ours regularly for flat stock, shaft stock, angle, channel and round and square tubing. As far as the press, you could try Dayton Rogers. __________________ CARPE CRUSTULORUM!

	Have you considered metal studs?They are available in many dimensions,usually corresponding to lumber sizes, and in many gauges,depending on whether load bearing of not. __________________ "I See" said the carpenter as he picked up his hammer and saw.

	Hello ozzb, how are you? You may find some of this helpful? Have you thought about a laser cutter, rather than a saw? I am sorry I forget his name now, but the saw that a previous poster pasted looks pretty good. It really depends on how long you will need one and where you could hire one.
