Hi folks,
I’m fed up of using grinders and want to invest in some tools to cut my stock.
I’m limited on space and whilst I don’t MIND investing in something like an ironworker it would be well over spec for my work and would take up a lot of space for no good reason.
Most common sizes for me go from 5x13 flat to around 5x100. Round and square up to about 12mm.
I use occasionally larger stock but don’t mind doing that with a grinder as it is only occasional.
I don’t want a power saw as I want it to be quick.

Anyway, I saw these Baleigh manual ironworkers. Anyone got one?
The claimed capacities seem crazy and I’ve read reviews that say they aren’t capable of such claims unsurprisingly. BUT perhaps if they’re being used at half their claimed capacity as it would be then they’d be up to it?
Ive also heard mention of a manual ironworker made by Kingsland but can’t find any info on them?
Any other thoughts on possible options.
