Obtained this guy before build blitz, and cannot recommend the setup enough.
Replacement blades are available from Home Depot etc, it's setup for much tougher cutting than your typical small bandsaw (wood/foam, etc).
It can easily handle steel/aluminum.
I would recommend the footpedal to control it.
