Metal cutting Mitre Saw ( or stand for angle grinder )
I see lots of wood mitre saws in B&Q and places like that, but are there metal cutting mitre saws available?
or a tool to mount an angle grinder in it?

There's a pile of metal cutting mitre saws at my local Netto, £80 each I think...

I've got the Netto one. They'd reduced the price to forty quid. It's a bit crudely made particularly the angle calibration but it
does the job. Done loads of mitred joints for railings already. Comes with spare brushes as well.

you can buy two main types one which is like a larg angle griner with a massive cutting disc the other is low speed with a standard type of blade. The
first type kicks out dust like its going out of fashion so recommend a mask

the angle grinder attachments aren't great (i've got one) but they aren't terrible.
If you need okish cuts quickly they work - biggest problem is the disks soon get eaten up by the metal so it will only go 3/4 of the way through the
box, you then have to turn the metal and cut again.
I've had mine do repeated cuts to close enough to 90 degress to be able to weld (yeah ok, not perfect but a small gap helps penetration!). When
i cut i hold / push the grinder to the left to take up any play instead of just using the nice useless handle.
Although for anything delicate / accurate / not 90 degrees i get out the hack saw.
