Re: Shop tools, any suggestions?
check out harbor freight www.harborfreight.com its basicly chinese copys of all the american tool companys for a 1/3 of the price. (note- do not buy hand tools from HF, but machine tools and air tools work great) They do have a horizontal/verticle metal bandsaw for i think 160 dollars which sounds like you could use it, as well as mill lathe combos for people with small budgets
