      Plasma or Band Saw?

      I'm to the point where I need a better tool for fabricating; cutting thick brackets, various metal stock, etc. I'm considering either a metal band saw (details yet unknown) or a plasma cutter such as the miller 375.
      Are there any recommendations on which type of either of these two? I have very limited space in the garage so the foot print of the smaller plasma is attractive as well as its versatility in trimming all types of metal materials and its portability. I migh suppliment this with a chop saw for accurate square & round tubing etc. However having to dress the cut material due to the plasma nature is a drawback while the band saw will have a better initial finish cut.

      Thoughts? Recommendations? Input?

      thanks,
      Morgan
