what is the max cut? Can it cut at least a 2x4? 2x6?

It will rip a 2x4, which would be the max for dimensional lumber. I've ripped wider boards by flipping over after 1 cut then making another cut from the other end. Just make sure to line the cuts up exactly.

I have no problems with a 2x4. That's all I've cut so far but see no problems with it cutting a 2x6.

It misses cutting through a 4 x 4 by about 5/8ths of an inch. I had to abandon a project today because of that issue. Great for 2 x 4's or lumber smaller than a 4x4.

Max thickness is about an inch and a half. I purchased mine to cut pinewood derby cars for our scout troop if that helps.

You can get ambitious and attack branches 12"+ but for "normal" use you will likely want to stay under 6" (and more in the 4" and under). This thing cuts those smaller things like butter.

No, it will only cut material up to 9" wide. It's designed to cut a boards length, like when you get to the other wall in the room.

Oh hell yes this saw eats a 2x4 like a twig I had a similar Destin that can not hold a candle to this one I can cut a 2x6 or 4x4 with it faster then I can set up a chop saw or my circular saw for a few cuts .. You;'ll not be sorry if you decide on this little saw.. Cuts a 2x4 like a hot knife through butter goes with the grain just as well for notching cuts

I have set mine to cut 1/8" birch plywood. I have even cut less to cut in a area to lay decorative copper wire. I do not know off the top of my head the max depth. I do not know if it will cut the short side of a 2X4. The gauge is easy to set! I like mine. I do say that you need to use it a few times to get used to its quirky way of always needing to plunge cut everything.

Sorry Mike. I have a larger cutter that will cut the dementions you ask for. And it will cut it fine. you wont go wrong. After buying the first cutter and saving time and money I would have been wrong not to up grade to the cutters I have.

Max supported is 2x4 (and that's what I'm using), but you can find articles that claim 2x8 works.

This is a great tool. The clearance between the blade and the frame is about 6 inches at the narrow end so this is pretty much the limit working from one cut. I am guessing that Joe worked from both sides to achieve what he describes.

Yes it will cut 4x4's in one cut but be careful and have the 4x4 anchored with the wood clamp that is built into the saw

The saw is built to make cuts of many angles on wood such cas 2X4's. It will not rip a 2X4. So if by,"Straight " you mean an accurate cross cut,the answer is yes .

It can cut a 2x4 , but as you know a 2x4 is really just a little less in dimensions. I find that this guy can do all I expect. However, it is not a heavy duty unit. If your looking for everyday heavy use then don't buy it. if you are looking for a good all around small unit for your wood shop then buy it. I love it.

It can be cut down to any size you want. I had to cut mine down to 25 x 22 x 1 and it worked like a charm.

it will def slice more than one at a time i would guess 3-4 depending on the size. i really love mine

I would only use this for cuts that are needed to be clean. You could cut 2x4s with it, but if you don't need super clean cuts, I would go with a cheaper blade.

I wouldn't recommend it. Though it may fit and function, the rather large diameter of the 'wheel' would cut down on the space available for cutting. Using it on an 8.5" saw, I doubt there would be enough blade left to cross-cut a 4x4 in a single pass. Though if you've never cut stock that large, then perhaps it won't matter.
