Dremel SM600 Carbide Wheel: Ideal for Precise Wood & Plastic Flush Cuts Review

Unfortunately Dremel charges so much for their blades. But when you have a Dremel product, your options are limited. Otherwise it's a good knife and works as it should.

This is the best blade for the max compact saw, which by the way mainly cuts wood and plastic. However, these are also the most expensive blades they have.

Bought for cutting trim paired with a guide for cutting at an angle. It does the job, but you have to allow for a blade offset of 1/8 inch from the intended line of cut. It's not 100% consistent with the cut. Wears out quickly so if you need to make multiple cuts you can buy two. I wish Dremel had a real wood blade edge instead of a grinding edge.

This is the 'must have' blade for the Max saw when you need to make flush cuts or use the angle guide. I'm only giving it a 3 because it wears out quicker than most blades and it's expensive to keep buying new. At the moment BD is the only supplier of the blade but I'm sure sooner or later they will be sold on third party markets and hopefully the price will come down, or even better if BD makes a better quality and longer lasting blade!

I fitted this wheel to my new Dremel Saw-Max, tried various wood and plastic tubes which the wheel cut through with very little effort. I love the fact that you don't have to switch from one wheel to another to cut different materials. I cut a few woods and thicknesses and then went to plastic and back to wood to see if the cut changes. the cutting speed did not change, the cut was even on both materials. Although you're limited to only a 3/4" section thickness, you tried the 2x4 and cut one…
