Built pole-barns and other structures with it, and the Metal Mart colored metal. Use a skill saw with a metal blade, or turn a regular blade around. Get some good straight cut snips to make your switch box cut-outs. Wear goggles, gloves, and ear protection. Make a cutting box out of 1X6, 2' wide, 4' long with a brace in the middle. You can lay the metal on the box using that as a support and a sacrificial table when cutting sheets. If you have a Metal Mart in your area, they'll cut it to length for you for a small charge.
