A friend who made a killer bumper for trucks & other off road vehicles, Paul Rickard, had a little German made, I think, chop saw that was a beautiful machine. Very precise. Carbide blade and it seems from my memory almost every part of it was machined rather than metal stamped. Had an integrated coolant system too. Think it ran on 220 and might have even been 3 phase. Anyone have an idea of what it was??

They are called cold saws..... very precise. No sparks and quiet!

Bewo saws are very nice.

Might be a Kaltenbach.

Precise, maybe- but quiet? The one we've got at work is about the loudest cutting tool I've ever heard! Kind of a man-killer with that handle, too.
Could just be that particular saw, or the blades we've got for it, but I prefer a well-tuned bandsaw any day.
