I just put the 7-1/4" version of the second one in our Craftsman saw yesterday to chop away the holes from some disassembled robot parts so they are again stock for short pieces come build season - easiest and smoothest aluminum cuts I ever made (various extrusions, mostly 6061 and 6063). No flashing, just sharp corners to deburr. Have not done any miter/bevel cuts yet, but anticipate no issues.
