Review on 🔍 Freud Diablo 10x50x1 Ferrous CERMET CSB, Multi-Purpose, One Size (D1050CF) by Matthew Gonzales

I'm a carpenter and just got a metal lathe and router and I needed a way to cut metal. I could buy one of these little band saws but decided to give it a try and see since I have a 10" table saw and a 10" cutoff saw. I'm sooooo glad I did! I just cut through a 2" piece of 12L14 round steel. Not a tube, but a solid round one. It took a bit (maybe 3 minutes) but the cut was very clean and very smooth. I've cut aluminum, brass, angle iron, sheet steel, sheet aluminum and now 12L14 for a lathe project. I have 303 stainless steel, I might keep trying. Everything works as expected, I take my time and really let the blade do the best of the job. I'm currently using my old Delta table saw with a skid on top, which is really great for everything (the 2" 12L14 was a little sketchy), but I'll be switching to my cut-off saw soon. FYI, make sure you get an adapter from 1" to 5/8" if you don't know your mandrel is 1" (most 10" saws are 5/8") I would be more than happy to do it again . I was going to buy a non-ferrous metal blade next, but this thing doesn't seem to have a problem with 6061 alum and 306 brass. Hope that helps.
