I have only set up the Evolution Miter Saw and cut a few pieces of square stock and re bar. I had a problem cutting the first re bar. I tried holding it by hand and ended up damaging the fence and 40 tooth blade. The folks at Evolution were super in handling "my" problem and stood behind the blade and fence which they probably didn't have to. Great customer service. Watch for the direction of blade rotation and make sure you have the blade oriented properly. I will only use this saw for light duty as it is not a heavy duty commercial unit. It should do what I bought it for. Due to the great customer service I will look at other Evolution Power Tools.
