Used to create side/embossed cutouts in hemlock moldings. Beautiful, clean, quick and smooth cuts when serving. This nozzle is in no way inferior to the legendary Freud saws. It's always a pain pumping money for one, but the pain is quickly replaced with satisfaction after the first cut, and even more satisfaction when it doesn't wear off after a use or two. It's hard to believe that such a quality instrument is made in this "good enough" world. Freud, please keep it up.
