3/4” solid round stock today, I was cutting the mushroomed heads off a bunch of concrete stakes. Less sparks but a lot of little metal chips. You can’t force it or the teeth will grab, however it still cuts quite a bit faster than my old Dewalt chop saw with fiber blades.Are you cutting tubing or stock, and what sizes? I've been curious about these since I saw these at the welding supply. Not exactly cheap to "experiment" with. I assume the dust mess is better, and limited sparks?
We use this saw in our facilities to cut aluminum, works well. This saw is designed for nonferrous metal.
Didn’t know Lowe’s sold them, I would have saved additional 5% with MyLowes.We use this saw in our facilities to cut aluminum, works well. This saw is designed for nonferrous metal. BTW, Lowe's sells it for $499 with the blade.

In case anyone is wondering it comes with a carbide tipped blade for $517.99, the more expensive version comes with a diamond blade.
I’ve had this one for years. I think I paid around $200.00 for it.
