This saw is made for cutting steel or metal Miter saws are used for cutting wood and dewalt has nice ones

Yeh too bad someone doesnt explain that better huh! I bought this saw last year as a Christmas present for my husband who said he wanted a "chop saw". However, the instructions that came with the saw itself stated that this saw was for cutting "metal" only. We started to return the saw, but my husband now says its one of his best gifts ever, even if it was a mistake. Sorry- the bottom line... not for cutting wood, but you may find more uses for this thing than you think. And no, i do not work for DeWalt.

No! this is only for metal/steel. In the metal and wood shops the terminology is "Chop saws" are for metal. "Miter saws" are for wood. Chop saws use an abrasive blade to cut the steel material. Miter saws use a metal blade like a circular saw to cut the wood! A chop saw will just burn the wood as it tries to cut through. The miter saw will not cut metal or steel for the same reason. They have their own distinct purposes!!!!!

Some wood working clown that didn't know the difference started calling miter saws chop saws and the ignorance has spread. These saws are intended for metal.

Not really, it would cut it, but probably light it on fire, it is for steel

Well, I would not do it-inadequate fence, inadequate miter gage for wood, too much blade exposed for a toothed blade. I like my fingers and eyes too much to try a wood saw blade in a metal cutting saw. Unless you are in need of a metal cut off saw, this is not the saw you want.

I would say yes. In a small enough and light enough so you can use it on small parts certainly adequate for wood and plastic.

I don't have an answer for you on the materials you are using it for. I've only used it on pressure treated wood.

I can't say because i havn't tried it on wood.but the blade is not made for wood cutting and I use a different saws for wood.

Yes it does. Once you set the height correctly to receive the wood, it will work.

If you can drill holes in the wood and inject the Premise into the holes, it should work. It worked well for me on both interior and exterior wood.

Honestly, I am not 100% sure. But from my experience using it, I think it can. Since it required to put many layer of fiber glass resins and it should work on wood as well.

I have never used it on wood so I can't be sure but we are using it on a kitchen counter top and have not had a problem.

it does trace onto wood yes...do you mean so you can burn a design into the wood? If that is what you mean, it should work..

I purchased it for use on aluminum,...but it probably could be used on very thin wood products. I suggest that you contact the manufacturer for their recommendation.

I didn't try it on wood, however, I suggest this can be used on flat, smooth surfaces, something likeglass, ceramic tile....

I can't see any reason why it would not work on wood. these are double sided sheets of tacky material like "Saran Wrap". they would work on any surface to which they would stick. My only thought is that it might remove wood stain, but I would not know for sure.

So far I've only used it on wood...and frankly it's fantastic. It's only a guess but from my experience it likely does.

I'm not sure about wood. I've been using it on brick. It seems to be doing a pretty good job on the brick.

I've used it on teak I believe, no problems. I've used it on hardwoods - I would not think it mattered what sort of wood and I recommend it.

not sure, but I use on hard wood. its not a soaking application so I guess it would be ok

I'm not sure, but I believe it would. I used it on unfinished plywood and it is working well.
