But what the heck. What is the cheapest mini chop saw that is good for 3/4" wood/plastic blanks. I have a Proxxon at my other shop but away from there for 4 months.
That's what I'm trying to avoid. Had a shoulder replacement. Sawing motion is not a good thing. If using a hand saw I use an aggressive hacksaw. Have cut several mitre boxes in half.How about a hand saw and miter box?
I hear you.That's what I'm trying to avoid. Had a shoulder replacement. Sawing motion is not a good thing
sold out. boo!If you could find one of these on eBay or Facebook Marketplace, it might be what you are looking for.

I have one and use it for all my blank cutting.
I could be wrong, but going by the pictures and reviews it looks like that's a metal-cutting saw with an abrasive cutoff wheel instead of a blade. Probably not the sort of thing you want to try cutting wood or acrylic with (but I bet it would make short work of custom tube-cutting), although I suppose it might be possible to fit it with a toothed blade if you can find one that matches and you're feeling brave.Junk or maybe ok?..... use only for wood/acrylic pen blanks. Light use...maybe a few cuts a week. I'm not a fan of HF but curious abut this. https://www.harborfreight.com/6-in-55-amp-cut-off-saw-61204.html
