What saw would you recommend to cut 2x2 wood?
617346
I wouldn't count on the Dremel Saw-Max to cut any 2-by materials. It's best use in my experience is for cutting flush to walls and other edge-cut projects. It grinds the materials and dulls fairly quickly. Since the "cut" in fairly shallow, it doesn't do well on materials that are thicker than an inch or less. A circular saw works well, like a 7-1/4" blade, hand-held, general purpose electric saw. If you're cutting lots of 2x2's in a cut-off fashion (as opposed to ripping length-wise) an inexpensive miter saw works well. Hope this helps. I use the Dremel Saw-Max strictly as a flush cut saw. I have two of them and one Roto brand saw of similar design. The Roto is toughest of the two. Hope this helps. I wouldn't count on the Dremel Saw-Max to cut any 2-by materials.

The maximum cutting depth of this saw is 3/4". It would not be able to cut a 2x2.

I don't know what a type 2 saw is. it should fit any full size delta tablesaw that is 27" deep an uses a 10" blade

Yes. Just enough depth of cut to handle 2" (really 1 1/2 inch) stock. This is not a powerful saw but it is extremely convenient. You won't frame a house with it but I use it frequently. It's my tool of choice for cutting 4'x8' sheet stock into manageable size pieces.

Excellent saw for beginner or advanced woodworker. I purchased mine to replace a craftsman i had. This saw is easy to use and cuts straight. I replaced factory blade with a Diablo 40 tooth, cuts like butter!

Crosscutting is easier on the saw than ripping, so why not just go with the full kerf? Especially with a 12" span...most decent saws will spin it easily on crosscuts. Unless your making lots of cuts and the wood savings is substantial, there's little incentive not go with full kerf in this situation.

I have the Incra MITER1000SE. It fits the groove and works well. Most cuts I still use the miter gauge that comes with the saw though. The MITER1000SE is overkill I think.

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.

Anything 2 inches wide or less should fit. The slots are thin to fit the razor saw.

The saw is ok for use with thin wood. It will stall and jam with use of thicker plywood, and treated wood

It cannot cut 2 inch! it might be able to cut 1 1/2 inch balsa wood! Don't waste your money on this saw

This would be a good saw for that type cutting..it's very easy to use and I really like the ease to adjust the saw

If the pieces of wood were greater than 6' in diameter (or width if they're triangular) i would go with the X27. Smaller wood would be fine with this axe but up to about 2" only. If the wood is smaller than 2" and not too knotty, then I would look into a knife for wood processing via that method; I use a Spyderco Schempp Rock for "batoning".

the 110500 is the one to buy if you will be using 2x12 lumber-the 0700500 is for 2x8 lumber. I opted for the wider 2x12 kit and like it.

This is a great saw and you will love it. If you want to saw 4in wood, get the 3/4 in blade and you should be fine.

I have not, and I would not !! This saw is designed for wood as far as I know and it's a rough cutting saw, it would be very dangerous!!

II am very happy with the 10" saw that I have. It cuts a 4x4 and many 4 x 6 finished lumber. It takes less room than the 12" saw and I mounted it in my work bench

That sounds right. I replaced a 15 year old jigsaw with this. It works great. I use it quite a bit to cut plywood, 2x4's etc
