I already have a Milwaukee port-a-band, and a 1500 lb., DOALL vert 
band-saw.I just was given an old
  SAWMASTER model #3100, I haven't been able to find blades 'round here. 
I want a small cheep hor-
saw that can cut unsupervised. I just had to cut about 39 million 
pickets with a chop saw. I HATE CHOP SAWS!!
I picked up about 20 cut-off wheels from walking the RR-tracks along 
old rte-66. The BNSF uses them to cut rail
and they leave 14" DIA. wheels as rems, the bad thing is there 0.125 
thick. those made me HATE CHOP SAWS!!!
even more.
So. I thought I would pick up a saw I could haul around if needed. I 
haven't given up on a real one.

Thanx All
