Going into JLO tomorrow morning....cutting radiator inlets and outlets.

What tools to use?

I have:

1. A nice roller bearing jigsaw

2. An air powered cutoff wheel

3. An air powered hand jigsaw

I plan on using drill bits for making the radius cuts, then using one of the above for the straight cuts.

What type of straight edge have people used? Or is it just "free-hand" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
