If you make them right you probably won't save much... and it might cost you more. I like to make them... right. To me that involves a good cross chain and side chain, J-Hooks (swivel lloyd) and the proper end hooks. I cut the chain with the torch as it's easier than a grinder and cheaper than destroying a set of bolt cutters. I use J-hooks because it's easier to replace the cross chain when it wears out/breaks though you could smash over a link if you don't ever plan on repairing the chains in the future. You can also buy crimp type hooks tha are a lot cheaper... but I hate them. I find them bad for slipping off if they're not crimped just right... and then you have a mess to fix. With the J-hooks you can usually throw a set of chains together in an hour or two.
