Re: KH Beam Hauler
How do you like the little chop saw? Is that one of the Micro-Mark ones? I've got a project I'm planning that is going to call for a ton of brass cutting and I'm thinking of getting one.

Beautiful work! Do you draw up all your plans before starting to cut metal or do you draw up individual parts as you get to them?
