I'm trying to start my amateur welding career and work my way up to fixing my rusty '74 parts car. For now I just need to miter cut some 1/8 " angle iron.
I have an angle grinder, sawzall and miter saw but never miter cut steel before. Will one of these do with a metal cutting blade or should I just bite the bullet and buy a real cut off saw. If so, any suggestions on what to buy? TIA. |

Get yourself a cold saw Makita makes a fairly cheap model or get a used one.Makes very little mess not like a dust throwing chop saw .Just my .02 I can cut just don't know how to weld yet (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif)
