You could buy a nice old Rapidor reciprocating saw for less than that. Usually on Ebay for around scrap weight price. Twice as dangerous and more enjoyable to watch!

Agreed. Got to be honest though, its SOOOO useful to flip it up and use it as bandsaw. I don't even put the table on it, the mounting point for the table is effectively a little table itself. Haven't picked a hacksaw up in the garage for ages!
