craftsman or tool junkie?

i couldn't spend enough swapping all my yellow tools to 20v, so i decided to teach myself to weld.....mostly because i needed to get a mig welder...and a plasma cutter, and some portable band saws and angle grinders, in order to build a cart to hold the welder and plasma cutter....and the tool box i needed to hold the parts and tips, and clamps, etc.

circular reasoning at its best.

now i need to build a cart to hold my bench grinders and metal chop saw and to permanently mount one of the portable band saws. i'm afraid that job will require me to obtain a floor mounted band saw. yeah, i know, it's harbor fright, but i have to draw a line somewhere

one day, i swear, i will do enough welding to save myself $100 that i would otherwise need to pay a real welder to do.
