Well my steel arrived today! Ordered from Enco on Sunday and it arrived on Wed!

5/16 x 1 1/4 x 18 0-1

There's a Harbor Freight nearby so I grabbed some chisels from there just to get started ($10).

I have a full sized band saw but I don't know what kind of blade to get that would cut 5/16 0-1 steel. What do I need. I have a hack saw but Brian mentioned that he's had trouble cutting 0-1 with one. I'll lay out a design and see if I can make any headway with one.
