Thanks for the replies!! Will look into a non-ferrous blade for the miter
saw - never guessed that it would work for this purpose, but makes sense to
me!

Thanks for all responses!!


I want to start making some custom pieces out of aluminum stock that
will require accurate, clean cutting and don't like the results
obtained by using my chop saw.

What's the best route? Metal cutting bandsaw? If so, can I get by
with a low end unit like the one offered by Harbor Freight for $170?
Will it also be useful for future projects using say 16 ga. mild
steel, etc?

Any input is appreciated!
