G'Afternoon All,
I'm working in an extremely tight space, and need to make sure I'm using every square foot the best way possible. To that end, this saw isn't really doing me any favors:
It's a 1hp/3ph with a pretty decent capacity - but I don't really need it.
Because of how little space I have, I try to keep very little stock on hand, and because my time is generally better spent doing other things, I try to never spend it cutting stock, when I can buy blanks to size.
Obviously there are times when I need to be able to cut stock, but the goal is to make that as rare as possible.
So I'm looking for a saw to fit my needs, and hoping for some guidance from the wise ones.
Anyone running one of the little bench-top bandsaws? Chop saws? Cold saws?
I'm not cutting anything exotic, typical steel and aluminum mix with the occasional plastic stuff.
I'm going to be getting rid of this thing - any opinions/ideas on what it's worth? Works fine, never had a problem with it - it's just beat up and old.
Danke.
