can this saw cut 1" diameter steel bar stock

At 90 degrees, the maximum size for round pipe or stock is 5", for square stock is 4.75", for rectangular stock is 4.5"x5" and for angle iron is 5-3/8". Maximum sizes are small for 45 degree angle cuts.

Yes, it won't just blow through it, but it will cut it. If you're cutting a lot of it, a band saw would work better.

I really couldn't say for sure. However, the holes in the removable rails seem to have a rather flexible arrangement to allow for other brand saws to be used. You may want to download the instructions from the DeWalt website to see if dimensions are available.

It will cut up to 6 1/8" in width. 1" X 6" is not the actual retail dimension of the wood (it is less) unless you cut wood to that size.

Technically there is no reason you couldn't I guess - the bar is a different piece. However finding suitable metal, tapping new holes, etc might make it more trouble than it is worth. I had search for a jig for a smaller slotted saw and eventually decided on a bigger saw. The only other option is to make a jig using many of the available patterns online. Might not be the answer you were looking for, but hope it helps. : )

Of course the blade needs to be appropriate, but the saw has plenty of torque and certainly I have had no issue in up to 1" thickness in all the mentioned materials. That is not to say that you could not go thicker, just have not used it over 1".

I can't say with 100% certainty that it will but it's not really intended to fit one saw and is more of a "one size fits most" application. I cannot think of a reason why it would not fit.

I'm not sure, based on my experience cutting thin wall steel tubing, cutting 1/2" SS will be very slow.

Yes,It's max cut is 6 1/4 inches. However, If you have to cut steel tho, find a blade for a 7 1/4 saw or even better sawzall blade. Infinitely cheaper ,easier and will not put makita at risk. Even if you need to cut at bevel, I would find another way. Not sure if metal blade exists and if it does it's gonna be a fortune.

not likely, but you might need a rubber shim, like a segment of a thick rubber hose to wrap around the 1" bar.

It will not cut 1/2" steel effectively; especially tool steel. However, if you want to cut a small amount and have the appropriate blade then it will probably get the job done. I personally would not consider it as an option for routine use unless I had no other choice.

i have been cutting 3/4 stock regularly so one inch would be no problem at all. this machine has been wonderful and so far i have mad e at least 500 cuts with no apparent wear this has been mostly in dom erw tube and various thicknesses and sizes of angle irone and 2 inch square tube and of course those 3/4 inch rods.

The max. cutting depth of this saw is 6 1/2 inches with the blade provided. As for steel posts, I think it was designed for timber framing wood. Abrasive cut off blade might work. Do they come in the 16 inch size?

Definitely aluminum, with the right blade. Steel I haven't tried and can't speak to. I'd look up 10" blades that cut steel and if they're compatible with the saw (a hook angle of 5 degrees or less, a 3/8" arbor, an adequate rpm, which I'd have to check...) it should do fine. It's more about the blade and speed than the other components of the saw.FWIW, I love this saw, several years into owning it.

No this saw is design for metal only, you would want to purchase a mitter saw for wood

HiYes. I used this saw with the metal cutting bladeto cut through 1/2 inch steel rods.

I am not aware of a Frued saw blade with a 1.25" arbor, sorry.You might want to check the Frued website for any or other brands.Good luck.Tool Trader

In one word, no. The saw is too wide. The only possible chance would be to cut a hole in one of the sides which really defeats the purpose
