If I had to just get one, I'd go with the angle grinder. I hear a lot of people say the Harbor Freight ones work fine ( on sale right now for about $9.00) but that was the first kind I bought and burned it up the first time I used it (granted I WAS using it to cut some thick metal) The second one I bought was a Lowes "brand" , forget what they're called but it was about $25-$26.00 and I put it through some hard hard use before it gave out. For the money it was very good and would last average use for years and years. Just my 2 cents.
