can i use a miter saw for pavers?

Inches and mm in the same spec??? 4"x6" 45mm

I'd hate to cut pavers dry. Most miter saws are not sealed well enough to work wet but you might consider it disposable and go ahead anyway ( a cleaver splatter guard might make it workable). However, with a diamond blade it does satisfy the basic requirements for cutting. Check the Arbor size on your saw and also on the blade. If it is the same it will go on the saw.

Do that project last in case it is a disaster for the saw.

It would likely cut it, but I don't know how many it would cut before it destroyed itself.

I suggest your rent a wet saw for the job.

Helluva way to ruin your brand new miter saw! I'm sure it'd work for a while but it's not designed for that and will not last long. I broke down and bought a cheap wet saw from Harbor Freight to do my brick projects and it's worked great. I think it was around $189 which in the grand scheme of things is not much (certainly a lot cheaper than buying two miter saws --- one to replace the trashed one). The other option is to rent but I prefer to own something so I'm not under too much time crunch on the bigger projects. It would have cost me at least 2-3 times as much in rental fees for a wet saw on my last project vs. buying the HF saw (Kiva fireplace). Cheers, cc

Sure can. Only thing you'll need is a new miter saw when you are done.

Harbor freight, buy both. Granted it will not be contractor grade. My stuff works just fine for the 1-2 times a year I pull them out for projects.

ok...point taken. thanks everyone. i'm sorry if it seemed silly but i honestly didn't know the answer before now.

If you use a dry saw also connect an electric leaf blower to blow the gritty dust away from your new miter saw.

You need her permission? We would then assume she brings in the primary income. no? Does she decide when you can have a beer?

Show her this.

my question is

As others have said...Um, it's a really bad idea.

Can't you just cut them with a hammer and chisel, like bricks?

uhm...i get her permission out of respect. i expect no less of her.

and i get my own beer because i'm the only one that knows which ones are the fresh ones and which are the old ones that i give to company, so remember that when you come over and i offer you one.
