[QUOTE="JGibson, post: 322296, member: 9445"] I cut out an aluminum floor for my boat. I used the old wood floor as a template. I used a Jig Saw (Slow process) with a metal cutting blade and a flat file to smooth out the rough spots after it was cut, pretty easy. There was no bending done. I did however make a FF/DF stand and it involved bending...I broke the first one while bending it, I'm guessing that if I had of used heat to bend it it would not have broke. The second one I made I just curved it til I got it to where I wanted it, no sharp bends. [/QUOTE]
