Can this saw be used for flush cuts the same as a "toe-kick" saw?

No... It is a mighty fine trim saw or plywood cutter, in addition to light tile and masonary work, but, can't be used for flush cutting. That type of cut is best handled by a dedicated saw or one of the "sonic" type saws. I use a Rockwell Sonicrafter for that type of cut (toe-kick for floor easement).

No. This is just for wood/laminate flooring purposes. I suppose if you find a tile blade that would fit the saw it would work for tile u to a certain thickness. As it is boxed it will not cut tile.

Probably not; the saw body is not svelte. The cut would be canted down toward the end of the blade. Best to just cut it level 1" off the deck, then use a grinder to get flush.

the saw yes, but the blade that comes with it is a gapless blade with a rather rough diamond embedding. with the proper blade it should work for your task

It does a very good job at trimming beards. I don't know what you mean by cut flush.

In one word, no. The saw is too wide. The only possible chance would be to cut a hole in one of the sides which really defeats the purpose

If you can find a blade, and I'm fairly sure you can. The saw has excellent support that would be required for a clean, straight cut. All my other jig saws would fail because of lack of support. This is an excellent saw. Best in it's class.Jim

The blade can be used both ways, I hate to give free ads to Amazon... any way this is a great Saw.... I have been a top builder for years... it's great. best of luck

It is a flush cut saw and if you use it correctly, you will not mark the mating surfaces.

It's a powerful saw that works hard, but I don't have any experience to compare it with. It's only my second saw and I use it infrequently. Sorry.

NO - only if you have the type 1! there is a type 2 saw made now and it's been out for a while - you have to look at the saw - if it says type 2 this probably WONT work.

I think you can. When I have to buy a new blade I'm going to try a 7 1/4" skil saw blade first. The depth of cut can be easily adjusted to accommodate the smaller blade. With this saw a 1 1/2- 2" piece is about the max you can stand up on edge and do a miter, but layed down and laying over the blade is just about as fast with let say a 1x4.

It will, but may not leave the cleanest cut. I would not recommend this saw for 'finish' work like that. I use this for rough edges like installing electrical outlets where the rough edges are covered by a finish plate.

Don't know: never tried, as I have a separate chop saw. If I were thinking about it, I'd check with DeWalt, or at least look at rotational speed; I'd be concerned about the chop saw blade coming apart if rotation were too fast -- or cutting ineffectively if the rotation was too slow.

I use mine in the yard. Sorry, but I don't have any experience with 'flush cut'. g

Hi, I can't see why you would want to,I believe the square cut is basically to use with circular saws only I would think, cheers

Yes I believe its possible. This flush cutter is meant for "softer" metals such as jewellery.
