    Cold cut chop saws are far superior 😑

    That one bit of info that you can use a "worn out" abrasive chop saw blade came at the right time. I just receive my 7"/9" large angle grinder just yesterday. Now I have something that I can use with my worn out blades.

    I need to cut some painted 3x3 11 ga tubing so I'm concerned that an abrasive blade would create too much heat. If I took my time and made small cuts and allowed it to cool between cuts, do you think I could avoid overheating the tubing?.

    Whats a good disk using a Milwaukee 14" chop saw to use for cutting 3/4" black steel pipe?

    I work in a sheet metal shop, we use one of these to cut angle, pipe, and sheet metal forms. The last couple years, there has been a terrible burr that is like a 1/2” long razor blade, it wasn’t too bad years ago but I noticed as time goes on they are getting ridiculous, could it be the blade? Cutting too fast?

    Great video Darren. I have a Makita 14" chop saw and when trying to cut 45 or 60 degree angle cuts in square tube always get a bevel which makes it hard to get a good joint. You mentioned this in the video - how would you recommend cutting angle cuts without a bevel? Is it possible with an abrasive chop saw or do you use another tool for angles? thanks!

    Great tip on roughing up edge with a piece of 1” flat while it spins super slow. Had 1 cut (2x2 square 1/4”) that took 30 min because it became glazed and didnt know. Then found your video lol

    I've had the DeWalt cold cut for 15 years and love it. However, the new Milwaukee fuel has a free 12.0 battery promotion about to expire. I'm trying to find a reason to buy it. Ha!

    I’m getting a lot of burr on my cuts on 20mm tube. I have a Makita abrasive saw which is new. Is the material too thin perhaps? And the cut is not square, I have tried different speeds etc

    Hello there. I'm from the Philippines. Just wanna ask about the abrasive disc I bought for my cut off saw. It does not cut easily to metals. What could be the cause? Could it be that the disc is too thick or because my cut off saw is only good for wood cutting?

    is it normal if my cuts are not perfectly straight when using an abrasive blade? i noticed my blade deflects outwards mid cut and causes inaccuracy
