Question Pullmax Question

I have a lead on a Pullmax P3 with the 5/8 shank tooling. My question is: how much shrinking or stretching can I expect to do with this machine? I understand the tooling requirements. The machine has been converted to 115 single phase and works fine. I plan to work with 18 ga mostly and some 16 ga. Am I asking to much of this smaller machine? Thanks, Charlie.

Default p3

Hi Charlie, and welcome to Metalmeet.
The P3 should do anything you ask of it. These were made to cut plate steel, so 18ga. is a piece of cake. If you look at the Shopdog or Hotmetal Custom line of machines, you will notice how much lighter they are. They work great for sheet metal.
P.S. where in central Florida are you?
