buying miller ---- is being a jew? half of that i just in welders, i cant buy some cheap ----, god damn. are you from HT or something?

i do like name brand ----, but some things you buy dont have to be name brand.. in my garage i got a ---- load or ryobi tools from home depot. i could of easly spend $50 more on most of them and got rigird or sometihng else, but you know what, its been 2+ years and they all been working great


p.s. i am not offended by you calling me a jew. i am a jew, a ------ jew. what else did you expect.

I got a 60 gal. craftstman air compressor and I like it alot, its nice and quiet, it was on sale in the craftsman club plus I get 10% for employee discount, got that bitch for $400. Keep you're eye on the craftsman club they usually have some pretty sweet deals.

I have one of these saws from them. Its going on 2 years. Throw the blade out it comes with and get a nice Bi-metal blade.

Buy the welders first and then go to HF.

You have to be particular what you buy from HF. A lot of their stuff is garbage. I have an air compressor from there and sometimes it doesn't want to turn on. I have to unplug and plug it in a couple of times before it will kick on. I have a compound mitre saw from there that doesn't come close to cutting an accurate mitre cut. I'm not sure it was even worth the $100. Should have bought a shitty one from HD or Lowes instead. I also bought a hardwood nailer from HF and it's awesome.

I'd go with that band saw, a chop saw, a cheap air compressor(if it does die, you won't be too pissed about it), a decent amount of their cheap air line(really good deal), their nitrile gloves, and maybe a couple angle grinders if they are on sale($20 or less). Also some calipers wouldn't be a bad idea also.

leave the $ in the bank and don't spend on stuff you do not need
