imo, if you spend the money buy a brake, not a multifunction machine.


If you can afford the expense, and do some metal bending work too, 
invest in a finger brake.
12"    http://grizzly.com/products/12-Pan-and-Box-Brake/G0556
24"    http://grizzly.com/products/24-Pan-and-Box-Brake/G0557


Or for very intermittent use
http://grizzly.com/products/4-Vise-Brake/H3243 (they offer 5 & 6 inch 
versions too)
