Autobody work with oscillating saw?

[rjrobin2002]

Ordered an oscillating saw today and have some floor pans to replace.

I have always used angle grinders and reciprocating saws for these, but wondering in these are up to the task for cutting lots of sheet metal?
Or are the more for just cutting a random bolt.

Never used on for auto body seams like a slow path to getting the job done. I used it to cut plastic plumbing inside walls and to take apart pallets while trying to save wood. that is about it.

They work well on wood. Even then they feed back on the user with difficult to overcome vibration. I've only used them with metal to cut off bolts in concrete. That did work.

Had to look up oscillating saw, in my house that thing is known as "The most Awesome tool ever"/

Might have issue clamping metal tight to keep it from vibrating, but honestly the awesome tool is just an air powered chisel which they do use to rip panels off, albeit smaller. I'd try a 2x4 as a brace under the tool to keep metal from moving.
