Default Electric hack saw questions

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If I had it to do over again, I would buy the same saw I have now, which is
a Milwaukee portable hand-held band saw. This is more expensive than the
saw you are considering, but it has a couple of advantages that mean a lot
to me: 1.) I can carry it to the work. 2.) I can make cuts that would be
awkward or impossible with a floor stand saw. 3.) It takes no floor space.

HF has a cheap version of this saw, which probably is of comparable quality
to the saw you are considering, and a lot cheaper than a Milwaukee or
Portaband.
