It works well or better than trying a cut a peice of square tubing straight with a angle grinder. I bought this machine because I am a hobby metal worker. I used it to so far to cut up to 5/8" bar at an angle and 3/4" bar at 90 degrees and the heaviest tubing I have cut with it would be 1.5"X3.0" with 3/16" wall. For the retanglar tubing, it would start out a bit slow because of the flat top surface, but once you get it down in the thinner cross section, it will really start cutting.

The only thing that I would complain about is the slow starts and some blade deflection because when you start, you have to push down pretty hard to get the cut started pushing the blade off a bit. There was some blade deflection on the 45 degree angle I cut on the 5/8" rod, but when I welded the part together, I just adjusted it to compensate.

I payed [...] bucks for this chop saw. I know it is a Dewalt, so it should last and Amazon had the best price on this machine that I could find. 200 dollars. Most other places wanted between 215 to 225 for the same product, plus I had to pay for shipping from the other suppliers.

I have yet to trip the breaker while using it either. When using the Milwaukee that was in my high school welding class last year, it had a tendency to trip the breaker, especially when it was being used hard.

Over all I would buy this machine, weather your a hobbiest or a welder/ fabricator. This could have a place in your operation. I chose this over JET's small bandsaw, which was about $400. Plus the bandsaw took up some floor space, which is at a premium in my garage, while this chop saw I just set on the shelf in the corner.
