where can i get blades for a metal shear

[s410man]

cant afford £200 plus for a relatively simple metal shear

so where can i get blades from as the frame looks relatively simple to knock up as long as you get the pivot points right

thanks

forget that

why are they so expensive for such a relatively simple machine

why are the blades so expensive

cou;ld you harden them in a forge if you made some

thanks

Sealey do a decent metal shear, I bought one like this one about 2 years ago it gets daily abuse on stainless steel and is still cutting just fine.
If you shop around you'll get one for less than £100.

thats the one my boos has

i think by the time i spend £50 getting some blades then a few hours making it which may not be as good as the original i dont think its worth it

thanks for the help

thanks
