handheld bandsaw

[naughtyboy]

anyone got one of the handheld bandsaws like the ones machine mart sell?
if so are they any good?
got to cut a load of 48mm tube and 19mm box at a mates and dont fancy dragging big one over there, as it needs to cut at his place for various reasons.

cheers

Just know that the lads on the USA welding web forum love them, But then again it's down to make and model for a quality machine.

if u want the real thing try getting hold of a milwaukee hand held second hand one .new ones are over 250 quid

Weve had them on trial, various makes, the milwaukee was the best of the bunch. Didnt buy any of them though. Quicker to zip through with a 5" disc cutter.
