Evolution Power Tools | 14-Inch Chop Saw | 15-Amp Motor | 0-45˚ Miter Range | 66T Mild Steel TCT Blade | Metal Cutting EVOSAW380

Whats not to like? After years of using an abrasive chop saw this is heaven. This machine is very solidly built and very accurate out of the box. I checked the fence angle indicator with an angle guage and it was bang on. The blade is a true 90 with the deck. The only alteration was to replace the downward travel stop screw (existing-m8x1.25x50) with a m8x1.25x45 to allow a bit more travel down for maximum blade cutting width at the table. IF YOU DO THIS spin the blade by hand to make sure it is just clearing the chip collector drawer to prevent damage and embaresment. the supplied 66t blade works very well. my first cut was a 45 on 2inx3in tubing and with very minimal touch up I had a perfect 90. As for blade life I havent used the saw enough to say and I know from reading other reviews that I have to take it easy and let the blade do the work. Quite a change from hanging onto an abrasive saw trying to find the balance between max cut speed and blowing another breaker then either quenching or waiting for the piece to cool so you can start grinding the cut to some semblance of accuracy. This saw is 2-3 times faster and much more accurate than any abrasive saw that I have ever seen. Another huge added plus is much less crap all over the shop from saw and grinders. The saw produces chips which don't go far and I just swipe them up with a release type magnet. I did a fair amount of research before buying and features-quality AND GOOD PRICE sold me.

MUY RECOMENDABLE

If I could give this 10,000 stars, I would. This chop saw is everything we need in a professional fabrication environment—powerful, accurate, and rock solid. It cuts clean, tracks true, and holds up under daily use without hesitation. Setup was straightforward, and once dialed in, it just performs. We use this in our shop at Ferrigno Freedom Welding Services, and it’s become one of those tools you immediately trust. No shortcuts, no fighting the tool—just consistent, reliable results. This is the kind of equipment that earns its place on the floor. I genuinely don’t see myself ever needing another chop saw. If you’re a fabricator, welder, or serious DIYer who values quality tools that work as hard as you do, this one delivers. — Ferrigno Freedom Welding Services

I'm a retired DIY'er. Love this saw. This saw was made to cut metal the right way with clean quick cuts. Way cleaner than abrasive saw. Solid base and vice, holds the piece you want cut securely, safely and it cuts your piece accurately and square. right out of the box. I cut 5" x 1/4" C channel in about 20 seconds without any strain or mess, where as it would take much much more time and you'll have a larger mess of dust and waste of material with a flimsy base abrassive saw. Convinient chip tray makes clean up quicker. The blade and metal stays cool as it cuts and you can handle your piece without burning your hands. Good company to deal with when you have questions about their product. Very glad I spent the money on this saw. I'll easily make my money back, saving from buying 14" abrasive blades.

Excelente cortadora, muy superior a cualquier otra cortadora de disco abrasivo. Bien vale la pena el gasto adicional, 100% recomendable!
