Customer Reviews for Dremel 3 In. Saw-Max Wood and Plastic Flush Cut Carbide Wheel

Blade allowed me to cut off very heavy oak door without having to remove them from Jamb. Great accessory for any craftsman or do it yourselfer

Great for small jobs.

Blade cuts great for about 20 feet then goes dull. At $10.00 a blade it is expensive, but the only one that I know of that fits the Saw Max.

was able to flush cut with remarkable speed and made easy work of what was going to be a tough job

Works very well for flush cutting trim and jambs, as well as siding for mounting j channel on gable ends of a building.

I have been using the Dremel SM20 to cut 0.5 inch plywood. It cuts it much more quickly and much more cleanly than using a jigsaw. The cuts need minimal sanding, and they are smooth. The only drawback is the saw gets hot fairly quickly, so you can't just rip into a 8 foot long cut. Therefore, I recommend this saw for jobs that need shorter cuts. It does a beautiful job.

Effective solution for small projects, but if you have a lot of cutting budget in multiple blades. I used this to cut the baseboard that was wedged between my drywall and hardwood floor (prior home owner installed hardwood without removing baseboard :(. This tool worked just great and effectively, but i barely got done with all baseboard in the room (a 14' x 15' bedroom). At $15 each that would add up fast on a large project! Sawmax motor & unit appears and feels sturdy and long lasting. Blade is the opposite.

I'm very careful using tools but this product was very disappointing. I couldn't even finish the job I set out to do as it didn't last long enough. I expected a carbide wheel to be stronger and last a long time especially for the price. This is an extremely light duty product. I wouldn't buy a Dremel product again.

I had a difficult situation with an outside outlet on a wall that a stone mason installed a veneer of stone to the wall. The stone was cut too long and there was no way for me to get the outlet and "In-Use" cover installed. I needed to make a neat, precise rectangular opening in the stone for the outlet and cover to fit. I was concerned that if I used a chisel that I'd crack the stone. So, I tried the Sawmax and this wheel. It worked perfectly. I was able to train a small stream of water at the wheel while cutting the stone and the cut was very smooth and precise. I did not need any grout to fill in around the outlet and cover. I highly recommend this cutting wheel.
