Which laser level and which angle grinder

Thanks for the replies. Much appreciated.

Have a chop saw already.

Just trying to make things that bit faster for myself. As stated earlier, it'll be used for cutting tray and edges (making sets, bends, etc) instead of using my hacksaw. Expensive alternative i know but with the time I'd save...

Makita is what I have Apache.
