I got the el cheapo 14in saw from Harbor freight, it was on sale for 39.99. It works great and have never had a problem with it. I would recommend getting the bigger one.

I haven't even checked any local places yet, I just thought I'd ebay it up first. 7" didn't seem like it would work all that great for pipes and ----.

That's way too expensive. Here is the one I was going to buy, but I fell asleep while the auction ended.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THOSE CHEAP SAWS!! I bought one and it lasted less than 5 minutes! The arcing on the brushes is so bad it heat soaks the brush springs making it useless. I even replaced the brushes for $5 and it lasted only a few seconds!! I finally went to SEARS and bought a DeWalt.

If you're gonna get a good chop saw than get Milwaukee.They make the best power tools.IMO.I've been through 4 chopsaw(craftsman,dewalt,ryobi).Now I use nothing but Milwaukee power tools.

I bought a box of FOUR electric grinders... look like the same sort of deal you found... on ebay for about $2. :P I was all excited, until I paid $30 for shipping and when I got them, I could only use them with GLOVES because they got so hot, parts of plastic on them started to melt. Oh well. I guess I got my $2 worth.
