I ordered a guillotine shear, that was listed as 39" but when it came in it will only cut 30 -32"" which was a disappointment, the over all length was about 39" (in my opinion a misleading description),
it was about $260.00 with the shipping, similar to this one, Manual Guillotine Shear 32" x 16 Gauge Sheet Metal Plate Cutting Cutter w/ Stand | eBay and then I added a table, to the left of the blade, and added straight edge, and a clamping system, and a stop for repeated cuts, And remade the stand so one could extend the cut if needed, something similar to this, Heavy Duty Fully Cast Iron Manual Arm Guillotine Shears

a few of the other things I have been workin on, remodeled the stand for the bead roller, as I am making a fence for it and the stand was in the way, a rolling shear, made the stand for it, used a lod 16.5 rim, a vice stand, this is my welding vice, if I need to I can make tabs to bolt it to the floor, but don't know where I think it would be best location, the welding table out a plate of 1" by 24" steel,
a set of shelves, on one wall,

really have not had a chance to use it yet, so as to how I like it I really can't say, I am sure as with most of this type of tools the capacity is over rated, "at least for ease of use"
