Good job for what? Cutting small parts? Sure. Resawing 12" boards? No. Ed
I beleive that 12" refers to the wheel size not the cutting height. This is a pretty low-end saw. It will likely be adequate for cutting curves through the thin dimension of a board, but this is not the class of machine suited for resawing.
