I use my grinder 95% of the time. The other times I use a sawzall or go to work and use the band saw. I just recently picked up a jigsaw, so I can see that being added to the rotation, though not often. I have cut aluminum on my miter saw and table saw. I bought a fiber blade for my mitersaw, but the sparks it creates was an issue for the saw. The blade insert is plastic, the dust chute is plastic, and it just isn't designed to cut steel. I had a little bit of rebuilding to do after that. Thinking about cutting steel on my table saw scares the bejezus out of me.
