We will see. I'm dreading using a cutoff wheel to make these cuts and I do have some money. Just was hoping to use it for more parts.

Brian --- I wouldn't buy these kinds of tools if you're only going to ever build one or two cars over a 15 or 20 year period. I've been doing this stuff for some 40 years now... and have built or heavily modified at least a dozen or more cars. You can buy some awfully nice parts with what these tools run. I'm lucky that I have the space and time... and I value this kind of stuff even if it's not really practical to own. I know guys that have built nicer cars and don't own much more than a hacksaw...

For the amount of use most people would get out of a saw -- I'd buy a decent band saw --- even a portable one.... but mostly a decent mitering horizontal one.

I've got my money's worth out of my little Jet 1/2" blade horizontal saw. Improved accuracy and quicker setup to cut angles are my new desires.

This one or it's big brother might be worth the extra money and still less than the cold saw GW just bought: http://www.grizzly.com/products/6-x-...-Bandsaw/G0614

He..He.. It was actually pushed in too But I can open the door fine if I drive it Close to one of the "walls"..

Before this garage I did not have one, so for me it is pretty sweet if you compare, I have even worked on the car in it That gets old, fast!

But I actually have another Place I rent together With two other guys that you actually can Call a shop, where I also store/wrench on the car in the wintertime I just thought this was a Nice comparison.. He..He.. To all those sweet garages

I`ll try to take photos some time.

Here is my shop. Only 18 months old, so there is more to do to get it stocked up with tools, machines, etc. 30' deep x 56' wide, with a man cave above.
