That's all that matters, my welding was described as "Pigeon Turds" one time.

You can buy metal cutting discs for your dewalt grinder for angles that work pretty good if you got the touch, theyre about .090 and cut 1/4" steel pretty fast as long as you hold it straight without binding it.

Its all Bamboo Plywood 3/4" @ $290.00 a sheet, w done cut up about 250 sheets so far.

Hitachi HAS been weird lately though, that 12" slide saw is a good example, alot of their products this past two years looks gay! All these graphics and colors. No straight carpenter would dare show up on a construction site with that crap. :icon_think: I got lots of Old Hitachi Stuff, green.

The term "Chop Saw" is from the early 70's when electric mitre saws first became common and affordable, the hitachi slide dual compound mitre saw was over a grand and very rare to see on a job. For fine trim we still used back saw's, you couldn't buy the 60-100 tooth atb and triple chip blades for cross cuts. Electric saw blades were mostly for ripping, table saws, radials.

Hitachi invented slide compound mitre saws, their designed for carpenters on the go every day, soft start motors draw less amps then dewalt's and others, you can tell by watching the lights dim from different makers. The lasers are great especially for crown moldings and wide boards if you are following a pencil line. You can adjust them side to side to accomodate different width blades and cut on the right or left of the line. You might consider a used craftsman 12" radial arm saw for a permanent bench installation, they never get used much after christmas and sell cheap, compliment that with a ten inch hitachi slide saw for quicky's. I DO cut alotta shit!

You could probably match up a Cherry Bomb pipe to fit for $19.99!

Thank you so much for all your concerns, but it looks like I'm already addicted as this has been in my mind for awhile now and I dont want take a step back from this. I just hope everything turns out fine with this Honda XX... really a good learning experience here in this forums. All of you are really cool and I'm glad to be a member for this site. Keep up the spirit! The "02" is the fastest... ...But,
