  1. A 10" chop saw is going to be the least headache IMO. Just make sure to use high quality metal cutting blades. It will make a ton of difference if you decide to tape multiple rods together.
  2. Looking to get a pressure washer for medium commercial use. Less than 10 hours a week total run time . This washer will be used for sidewalks, driveways, siding, wood decks etc. What are my minimum requirements in regards to max PS and gallons per minute for this type of work? I used to do this type of work many years ago, but I was a kid and never paid attention to the numbers. I generally don't put much value into the commercial and residential labeling of power tools because I find that they're often BS. I've purchased commercial grade stuff that didn't last 6 months, and I've also purchased residential grade stuff that I've used for years on almost a daily basis. I tend to like Dewalt power tools, and the models I've looked at also have Honda motors which I'm a fan of. Dewalt's ratings seem good on their power washers, but I've always found that their are a few particular brands and models that people gravitate toward in every industry good reason. What is that brand and model for a decent medium use powerwasher?
  3. Just introducing myself. New guy from pacific north west with about 20 years experience working in the trades. I've been a cable guy, Garage door service technician, and Alarm installer among a few other things over the years. I joined this forum to both give and receive advice on tools with like minded blue collar individuals with tons of real world experience actually using commercial grade tools. I'm considering starting a part time seasonal external home cleaning and power washing business to supplement my income, and am looking for advice on some thing in regards to tools of the trade like pressure washers, squeegees, detergents and other products. I do have experience in this type of work, but it was about 20 years ago, and I'm no longer in contact with the guy I used to work for. Any advice would be appreciated
