Malco turbo shear

Just flipping through a Malco catalog I recieved yesterday and on 3rd page they have their turbo shear hd. I don't know if this is a common tool, but I have never heard of it before today. It's pretty cool. Just thought I'd share and try to get some feedback. They any good? Malco tools are made in the USA. +1 respect points. http://malcoproducts.com/product/ro...assisted-cutters-shears/turboshear-heavy-duty

The best way IMO to cut metal roofing, especially valley/hip cuts, and long rips down the length of panels. They navigate over the ribs fluidly.
I have used these extensively (both the old and new versions) and they work very well.
They have a set screw that can adjust the blade tightness over time.
Excellent product and great design.
Ive been told more than once by onlookers, "thats cheating!"

See I thought they only made pneumatic powered shears. These things are awesome because you can use it on your existing battery powered drill. Brilliant!

They are awesome, I'm in HVAC and they cut the side of a furnace out like nobody's business
