I need to cut and later assemble some slotted angle steel extrusion.
So, I enumersated the items I needed to the assistant in B&Q and said, "Would you have a hacksaw blsade for a saw from about 1938?" and he laughed!
I ask you. If it was good enough for my father-in-law it should be good enough for me.
Anyway when I told my next-door neighbour, he rushed indoors and came out with a blade for a "Junior". Luckily I have one of those too.
Probably never heard of a hacksawThere used to be a lovely old mechanical one where I worked, You just clamped your angle in the vice on the bottom and lined it up and switched on. Much quieter than an angle grinder!

The unwoke.
Probably pinnerite because he wanted to cut something.

They sold it to me after you left:-)
Unlikely to be stolen except for scrap.
The vice is adaptable to allow angled cuts.
Not hugely fast but you can be getting on with something else.
