What kind of saber saw do you have? My Bosch has no trouble going

What kind of blade do you use cutting rough 2X ironwood? And how
long does it take to cut a 4 incher? What about cutting 45 degree
cuts? Or better yet double 45s? 45 degrees across the board and 45
degrees through the board? With a sabre saw?

You're not answering the question. What sabre saws (brand, model)
have you actually tried with?

I concur on the accuracy, power and usefulness of the Bosch, and
believe that would be the best power saw of the three for DadiOH
to give to his daughter (which was the point of this thread).


I found a left blade PC 743 (my saw) on CL for $120. Haven't contacted the guy yet.
He's a 1.75 hour drive from me. I'm almost hoping he sold it already. ;-)
