Can this cut slabs of hard wax and can it do it without wasting a lot of the wax in the process?

Outstanding tool and far cheaper than competitors; and that was really the only reason I purchased this item.

It won't cut the wax, it will melt through it. You will lose some wax due to the melting

There are really two issues here. First, are the cutting tips hard enough to cut the material. If it's carbide-tipped, yes. If it's just high speed steel, you might get away with a few time. Check with Dewalt's website. The second, and more problematic issue is whether you have enough torque with your driver. There are alot of cutting teeths contacting the surface all all one. Multiply by the 2" lever arm, that's alot of torque. Cutting wood and plaster is okay. But cutting steel, that's alot of force. And a related severe problem is with the precession of the cutting point, which tend to make holding this thing difficult by hand. I used mine to cut through 3/4" thick wood. It was already wobbling a bit. With steel, it'll be a bigger problem. With a 4" diameter, it'll be worse.

It can do it but if you will be making frequent holes of this caliber i would suggest a Milwaukie hammer drill. But these do everything I need except drill through concrete slabs.

I would not recommend this for tile. To get a clean cut on tile you need to use a wet saw. for a diy job there are alot of cheap wet saws on the market or just buy a cheap die grinder and use a dry cut masonry blade on it. use the right tool for the right job

Yes...you can. make sure you press the strip on immediately though since the wax cools so fast.

Not very quickly. The blades are very flexible and cut meat very well, unless you have to use any significant pressure. I don't believe I would try to cut any hard bones.

I'm sure it has the power, but the ability of the craftsman is the factor. The use of a pointed chisel would be the only way. a flat blade would turn and dig in where you wouldn't want it to. I use a flat blade to chisel up a floor and it would always dig into the flooring. The bit turns. Good Luck. Oil it often or you will be using a hand chisel. bassman

Yes, just run water on the bit while you cut. I used them on granite slabs and they worked great.

It cut ceramic tile and milk quartz so far.... have not tried marble on it. Quite possibly will though.

That I'm not sure of because I haven't attempted it myself. As far as cutting no I don't believe that will work, but it would burn it off. As for the sealing bit it might be able to, but I'd suggest watching your settings if you try because if its too high you might just end up burning through it rather then sealing it off.

Of course it will work, but only as wax tool. For polish, you'll need more speed that only a corded drill would.

Yes, I'm a race car fabricator and have made hundreds of cuts on everything from chromoly tubbing to heavy wall and am very pleased with results. I have made cuts with less than a full blade width and ever cut is square and true. Not possible with a standard chop saw with no heat or sparks.

I think it will, especially the larger bits sizes, but you need to use lots of water to cool down the bit while cutting.

Yes, it should be able to, the blade is very sharp so it take little effort to make the cuts.

Yes..it will...not uniformly but it will chop and if not careful, pulverize it.

We used it to cut tile and it worked quite well, had to keep the surface very wet. I'm not sure how well it would work on hardiplank, we used a jigsaw and and round diamond saw to cut our hardiboard.

It would cut it but holding a small stone to cut it would be hazardous to your hands and very messy. You should by a cutter that has a holding fixture. My opinion. I like the saw for tile.
