Evolution Power Tools081-0007 Rage 4 Multi-Purpose Chop Saw,Black,185 mm (110 V)

This is a truly versatile piece of workshop equipment for me. Small footprint but sturdy. As claimed by the manufacture I can confirm that it does cut (burr free) all the materials stated. I can also add plastics to the list as I had no issue cutting Acetal bar (20mm) and acrylic tubing (20mm).Just check the material rest (used to clamp the material against) is square as the clamp does tend to push the material upwards slightly, but with care the Rage 4 cuts accurately and cleanly.The only niggle I have with the Rage 4 is that you do not know where the cut line is without bringing the saw blade down and positioning one of the saw teeth near the cutting point. If there was a pointer/gauge/laser on the guard or base to indicate the cut position that would have been just perfect. But as mentioned it is just my niggle. And just to add...earplugs are a must!!Very impressed overall and I feel confident using the Rage4 as often as I can, saving long stints on a bandsaw and especially the self powered hacksaw! A very capable and efficient piece of equipment and is highly recommended

Brought this to chop up pallet wood panels for kindle as i have a wood burner.. cuts wood fast and easy. Deffo recommended.

Good value for money, easy to setup and did exactly what I wanted it to do. The only reason was not a 5 was because I found it difficult to get the blade lined up exactly in the correct place for the cut.

Excellent piece of kit, clamp is reasonably good, eats through 41mm x 41mm u section steel (unistrut) like butter. 10mm threaded bar is also cuts easily. Pretty clean cut, just a quick rub over with file to take of the sharp edge on the u section. threaded bar does not need a lead filed on it, nice clean cuts. I've only cut steel on mine, so I can't comment on aluminium performance (or wood).You need to wear goggles, not glasses when cutting as the 'chips' can fly up easily. No need to force the saw, as it cuts through easily on its own...I have never used a grinding disc type chop saw, but I would think this is much easier to clean up than the grinding 'dust' that gets everywhere when grinding. I would also think this is much quicker at cutting than a grinding disc type saw.

Good build quality for the price. Quick delivery

This saw is a superb bit of kit. Powerful and precise. Leaves a totally unblemished cut

Great for small diameter steel cuts super fine anything bigger does not do the job so again I would save your money and buy a bigger one. I had to remove all the safety guards and use it without to be able to cut the largest deal. Made my mistake in buying the smaller one it’s not much more money to buy a full size cutter but it is nice to cut without using coolant.

Bought this product to cut smaller bits of metal. I liked that it was smaller than other standard chop saws and thus thought ideal for my needs.The product arrived and I am sending it back without even turning it on. The vice/clamping is sub par and the entire unit should not be more than £50 not £100. You cannot buy blades except the multi purpose or a wood one for the device which is pointless if you dont like the standard do all metal wood blade they provide.Back to the clamping. The onboard vice has a cheap back of metal that is rounded at the bottom not squared. This is the height of cheapness. Basically anything you need to clamp that is L shaped will slip under the clamp as you tighten it because the bottom is rounded and thus rides up over what you're clamping.Going to ay £50 and get a metal blade for my Makita Mitre Saw. With sheath that will still be closer than those on the smaller 'Rage' Blade.Rage had the perfect chance to make and really useful small metal cutter. Its just a shame they made the clamping for tubes not channels and as such, is totally useless to ppl wanting to cut a wide range of metal channels.
