I am doing a side job, steel support posts and I-beams for a deck on a downtown building. Anyway, we have vertical standing posts that are 5" x 5" x 1/4" wall square (18 of them). Once these are fastened to the interior of the building they come through the existing roof a few feet. We will then need to use a transit to establish the proper height and cut the tops off at that height. Seemed like an afterthought at the time, but now I'm wondering how well this is going to work.

So, do any of you guys have experience using a PortBand? If so, am I nuts to think about cutting (18) 5 x 5 x1/4" posts with one? Any other ideas? My back is against the wall here. TIA
