I have never tried to cut siding, but with what I do know about siding and the Roberts cutter I would bet it would. Siding is soft as far as not cracking or chipping. The Roberts can handle any angle up to 45 degrees and would cut it like butter. Not only smooth cuts, if you are up high and have a small amount of room, you wont have to climb down to make cuts on your traditional saw. Don't try it with metal siding. Just vinyl siding. The blade on the Roberts is like a razor blade and as sharp. I hope this has been helpful and I truly feel you wont be disappointed.

I used it for vinyl siding (warm tempatures ) and for mdf type siding it was a great time saver

I used this nailer to install Hardiplank siding. Its too powrful for vinyl siding. Personally, I wouldn't install vinyl siding on a storage building, much less a house.

Yes I do. Matter of fact I used it today. I resawed some 5 1/2 cherry. I also have resawn red oak. It does a good job but you'll need a different blade than what comes on the saw. I bought a resaw blade from highland woodworking. It has plenty of power to do what I want it to do. I don't think you should have any trouble sawing maple as I also plan to resaw maple myself. All in all I've been very pleased with the saw. Its pretty heavy so if you plan on moving it much you might want to put it on a set of rollers.

I suggest you contact mold armor discuss or with a hardware store expert (Lowes or home depot). I would stay away from any hard bleach products. All I know for sure is that it worked extremely well on vinyl siding.

Yes, I have a curbing company and I use one like this on my 7 1/4" circular saw to cut 4"x6" concrete curbing.

I use it for vinyl siding & it gets the job done. In fact, you do need to make sure & use the right nozzle to prevent from causing any damage from coming too close with the wand. The 2nd story is a bit tough. I can get water up there but not with any major pressure. It has, however, cleaned things to my satisfaction, even the second story.

I do not have t he tool at this site. It's less than 1/4" wide as I remember but greater than 1/8". When making a cut on cement siding I found that it is best to mark on back side and cut on that dide as well to make a cleaner cut.

As long as the siding was relatively flat and there was not framing behind that you also needed to cut through. Depth of cut is less than a standard 2X4. Also you might need to purchase a metal blade so that your cut out would be less jagged. Mine came with two blades. A diamond blade for tile work and a multi-purpose blade.

I wouldn't recommend it for that, more for small jobs. If you have metal siding , it's possible it would work but again probably not the best approach.

Yes, I was doing that yesterday with cheap 7mm laminate! The blade acts equally over the whole surface of the laminate, so the wider the piece (or if you cut at an angle), then the harder work it is to cut.

I don't think so. I purchased an EZ Shear for doing straight cuts and 26" EZ Shear Siding & Siding Trim Cutter for doing 8/12 rake cuts. They work great. Wade

I use it to cut 2-7/8" galvanized steel schedule 80 round pipe. There is a less expensive model at Home Depot that will do pvc pipe just fine.

If you get the PacTool that is for 5/8" siding it should work. We have used it for certainteed and will use it for Hardie (tried the thickness and it worked) siding. Awesome!

Sorry, haven't tried it yet. So far only using it for Hardie Siding and it works great.

I have used it but I bought a 12" roller from Harbor Freight and placed it on the edge surface of a 2 x 4 and used it that way. This made sure that it didn't drag too much over the surface. It might work just find by itself but you might try it and then try my suggestion. I am using it with a Craftsman Professional table saw with a 30" fence width.
