I have three of the Porta-bands, two loose around the shop, and one on a
special mount/stand that I never remove the saw from. You can do a lot of
work with those dudes.

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.
