Max depth cut will only be about 3". Try a 7 1/4" blade in a circular saw, but will still be a chore. Better off to rent a larger handheld saw.

Not when installed on my saw - can cut just under 2 1/2 inches - have to use a wedge in the cut to snap Can only cut about 2 1/2 inches deep - have to use wedges to expand the cut or if possible cut from the other side,

I wouldn't recommend it. Though it may fit and function, the rather large diameter of the 'wheel' would cut down on the space available for cutting. Using it on an 8.5" saw, I doubt there would be enough blade left to cross-cut a 4x4 in a single pass. Though if you've never cut stock that large, then perhaps it won't matter.

I doubt it unless there is another type of blade available. The high speed steel would most likely dull very quickly if they came into contact with concrete.

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.

I cut sheetrock, 2X4 and a 4X4 --- granted it is probably not the most efficient way to do it ---- I think it should work just fine. The only thing I have not cut with these tool is metal or tile -- but if I get the right blade probably will do it fine.

I was able to cut through pressure treated 4x4's with mine, I even cut through PT 6x6 with it. You have to turn it, but it will do it.

Yes it will cut marble tile. From me experience, it does not handle anything larger than 12". The blade that came with the saw is sufficient to cut concrete pavers. The overall quality of the unit is fair and what I would expect from something made in China. There are better saws on the market but, will do the job if your not using the unit on professional basis 6 days a week.

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.

You cut pretty deep near the concrete into the lawn. Approx 2.5 inches at tops.I don't cut that deep. However, you can and I have tossed up a pretty deep trench when the blade is lowered

Sure it should, as long as you are using a tool bit designed for concrete. The tool itself appears to be powerful, from my experience.

Yes, very well, using the appropriate cutting wheel. I have cut 1/4 inch thick, ceramic floor tile with ease. I was even able to cut deeply into a concrete landscape block.

Probably not. Thickest we cut was 12 gauge aluminum. 1/8" thick is 8 gauge. May cut a few feet but would probably jam and burn up if you had a lot to do.

It depends on your cut, and make sure its not that thick in diameter.8 inches long, diameter should no thicker than a pencil.

I used it for concrete siding and it works great. I would think it would cut flooring no problem. Just keep using the stone on the blade regularly. Good luck. This is worth every cent great tool for the money

I believe it will. Not as quickly as one of those huge and heavy ones used in road works etc. but I have no doubt that it can do it. I've used it on concrete up to 4 or 5 inches thick and it can do that easily.

It's a pretty hefty saw, so I don't plan on using it for cutting anything but concrete, block or brick. I know the blade that came with it can cut metal since I cut through an 8" concrete wall with 1/2" re-bar inside. No doubt a person could find a wood blade to fit it but doing that a lot could take out an operator's back since it is a heavy saw--there are a lot of lighter saws for buzzing wood.

There are carbide and diamond coated blades for it that are stated to work in "porous concrete". I think it would work for cutting grooves and things like that, but the tool would be overpowered trying to cut through a concrete wall if that's what you need to do. For cutting through a wall, either a rotary concrete saw or drilling a series of closely spaced holes with a HD impact drill would work better.
