Maximum cut size? One reviewer says this cutter will not cut a full 12" (they say it 'almost' cuts 10"). Is that true? I need 11 inch cuts. Thanks!

Today I cut a 12" piece of paper. It just makes it and you should have no trouble doing an 11" CUTS. it is a great cutter!

The bed of this cutter is 12 inches long, and it makes very good 11 inch cuts. (I've found that if you try to cut the full 12 inches, the last bit can be dodgy.) The other reviewer is speaking of the width. If you place you 8.5x11 paper in landscape orientation, your paper will hang off the left side of the bed by about one inch. Thus, unless you are cutting off about an inch and a half or more, you can't use the markings on the bed to help you.

Rich, I cut 12 inch tiles on this great saw. But I had to mark the tiles with a pencil and take the guard off. You should be able to do the same. don't rush your cut because the saw will slow down on you. I did my kitchen floor and it turned out great! I had to wear a full face shield and took a garbage bag and cut holes it in for my head & arms because the saw really throws allot of water. I still would use the saw though. Take your time on the cuts and you will be fine.

What number blade are you looking for? I ordered the #5 blade and had to return it as it too didn't fit. I haven't re-ordered yet, but will say this that the #10 blade that came with the set was no longer sharp for when I cut my dogs hair for the second time. I have a Shih Tzu who's hair was never beyond an inch and always groomed no knots...so there should be no excuse for that. I now need to get another #10, but not sure if I should invest more money in these clippers as I don't find they have much power to them.

The 14" version is a dream to slice all types of breads without shredding them. I'm sure if the 10" knife is built the same it should do just as well. For a couple of bucks more just go for the 14" one it makes slicing so much easier.

I use the saw to primarily cut glass. I have made crosscuts up to 24" ....as far as the width, I have cut 48" pieces of glass with no problem. I have used it to cut 12x12 and up to 18x18 tiles....hope this helps.

It will cut 12x12 paper - the cutting area measures about 12 1/4" - so you have a little wiggle room. It doesn't go down to 1/8 in increments - 1/4 in only. But it does have metric measurements listed.

We bought and own a 110X150 in. and it works really well. If you want to make it small I would take it to a taylor and have them make straight cuts. Hope this helps.

No, it will only cut up to 12", excellent trimer if you can find larger one.

Paul, after your question, I re checked. My blade Dia. is just under 10 ft. Not as advertised at over 12 ft. Also I did not get an adjustable tail like they say in the advertisement suggested. If you bought one and this is why you questioned the size, please let me know. All efforts will be made with Gudcraft to correct this. The blade size is most important to me. I can work around the other false advertisements. Please reply. Thank you. Kenneth BigelowWB8ZIQ_ken.1@netzero.com

The unit has several tube that allow you to cut from about 6" long down to 1/2", but will it cut all the way down to a crew cut, I can't honestly answer because I don't cut mine that short. It appears that it will. Hope this helps.

12 by almost 15. This is the best cutter I have ever owned and I have owned several.

It appears that you can place a 12" blade into the handle. The blade slides into the handle and is held in place by a screw and nut further out on the frame. If you put a 12" blade in the handle the blade will stick out of the frame two inches more than a 10" blade. It will probably flex more than the 10" blade when you are cutting. I used this to cut a screw that was holding an old window in place and I only could place the tip of the blade between the window and the frame. It worked very well but there was some flexing with just the 10" blade.

I needed 12 but only brought one just to see if it would work. As it turns out I had the same problem. I needed to cut a little more than you but decided against it since it I wasn't sure how it would affect it. Been looking around unsuccessfully for a shorter one.

I measured it improperly as 12 inches, it is actually 8 inches on each side. Still want to cut off about 4 inches!previous (incorrect) answer:Believe it or not .. it's 12 inches long, on each side! This is actually too long for me, and I have been meaning to chop off 6 inches or so on each side, but haven't done it yet.

I cut mostly 2x4's but I have also cut 4x4,s and even 1x12's and I have not had the problem described at all. I love the way this saw works. If it sticks, it seems that it would be either a cleaning problem.

I don't know, because I only needed to cut at right angles and shallow depths. That said, you can definitely extend the blade to cut at 1/2 an inch, but I'm not sure (this is not a doubt, just a lack of personal experience) how well it will work compared to the very reliable and clean cuts I get.

Yes. But 12" is as wide as it cuts. Length is no problem. It's a great little cutter.
