I see a Champion model that will cut up to 7" thick and 7" wide. Its made of aluminum, with a bowsaw-style cutter. Ive been looking for an old MF miter saw - they are supposed to be all over the place -but I never find one (with the saw, anyway).
Know anything about the Nobex?
Edit: Interestingly enough, The Best Things sells this in addition to LV and Highland. They recommend the Japanese Ikeda blade.
Thanks,
Fred
