This is a decent blade for the money.I 've thrown everything from scraps of plywood, two by four wet kiln-dried Poplar, this blade and it has always had a decent tore cut.It Poplar almost splinter.I blade.If not recommend this to your attention that you cut, and keep it clean and sharp blade that will last long. Now get out there and do a bit of dust.
Aluminum Cuts like wood. Be careful though. The miter saw instructions you give precautions to follow for a given blade does not catch the metal (the part that is cut) and round like a ball on the back side of the saw. I have not read / follow the instructions of my saw, (and has learned the hard way).
Purchased this blade to replace the stock blade on my DeWalt miter saw. I'm really impressed by the quality of the cut of the blade - glass smooth. I've now widely used for flooring and fir ply and it works perfectly in these materials. Really excellent value for money.
I used this blade to cut aluminum. I was surprised by the smooth and effortless it was. The thickness of aluminum varies from cut to cut, but the blade does Morse's work. Steel has taken a little more cut. In some cases, there were lots of sparks shot out during the cut, the cut, but slower reduction of sparks. Overall I am very happy with my blade Morse seen. I highly recommend it.
I'll tell you now, I tried all the other saws on the market tabs, sliding compound miter miter and in all sizes, and this saw is the best. I think the sliding saws are more expensive and more-apt to run out of alignment and become bogged down in heavy materials. They also require dedicated workstations to make them as heavy as the radial arm saw you're probably replace. The 10 "compound miter saws, while more affordable, the lack of cutting ability and, frankly, are notGet the design and construction attention as the saws are more. The 12 "miter fall in the middle. (And the middle value is always the best). They're getting attention on the construction and design, as they aim to the contractor, they have a cutting capacity Decent and they are robust, but portable. I decided that of all other 12 "saws because it has a zero clearance throat plate (a must to remove detachable), triggers excellent tabs, and a strong engine. It also comes withExtensions stock (that work) as standard equipment. The blade upgrade is first class. I even bought a second for the LS1220 pro shop where I work. If you pay much, realizing it!
I purchased my Bosch jigsaw. He did ok, but it's a triple chip grind, which I think is wrong profile for wood. Cuts up very well but there are tears on the bottom.
I use this blade on a Dewalt 709 Compound Sliding Miter Saw. I purchased it based on reviews on other woodworking sites and while there were others rated higher, it was hard to justify the dramatic increased price of the Forest or even other Freud blade. I have had a Freud 10" combination blade in my tablesaw and have used a Freud 8" stack dado set for about 10 years and have had absolutely nothing but good experiences with both. This 12" cutoff blade is such a treat, especially after wearing out the original DeWalt blade on a deck, a complete refinish of a basement and installing hardwood flooring on one floor of a house. I thought about just getting the blade sharpened but there was almost nothing left to sharpen. The Freud blade is so quiet and cuts so smoothly that there have been times I've had to check to see if I really did shave a little off the board or missed completely. Heartily recommend this blade for CSMS users.
I had to miter saw 10 inches, but this is my first 12-inch and wow, what a difference it makes. The DW716 slices by anything - wood, steel, PVC, copper, even the stones and bricks. Like others, I had to spend about 30 minutes, the calibration of the box, but have also provided a comprehensive understanding of the tool. These usually sell 20% less at your local hardware store where the sale by Amazon, so shop around. From 10 to 12 inches provides a single referral: the cost of blades is50% more. However, this baby has 15 amps so torque is really useful. If you do not have a good miter saw, Rob your wife or your mother to get one. The speed and accuracy will only pay with your first project. It is much easier to carpentry.
bought mine on Amazon for $ 40 when the blade Irwin I first purchased from Amazon arrived very distorted and I have returned. The Bosch is a good blade, flat, thin kerf, clean cuts, made in America. Not as pretty as some of the more expensive blades, but I do not see how they would do a better job and to justify their additional cost. Type of packaging cardboard chintsy it coming, though. Even Irwin came in a plastic bag for easy storage Sleeze safely.
This blade is worth every penny. I bought one of those at the lumber yard, I work at (where Ace Hardware is stored) and I love it. I use it in my Bosch 4212L 12-inch Dual Bevel Compound Miter Saw with Laser Tracking. It is robust and works silently. I'm not sure, however, if it can be reteethed. I should also note that this blade has 3 different teeth while most have only two. Rather than having only left and right teeth, this blade has teeth left, right and center. Iurges everyone. It cuts so easily that you never have to sand again.
