What tool/blade do I use to cut sheet metal?

Trying to cut 16ga steel sheet metal n don't know what the best tool is to use to get a straight edge, i have a 10" tablesaw but all the blades I can find for it are carbide tipped with a big "DO NOT USE ON STEEL" warning. I need to fabricate a buncha stuff but kinda hard to do if I cant cut the steel.

I'd use a nibbler. Look around www.mactools.com or www.sears.com

I think that's what the tool's called.
