I have the DeWalt cut off saw with carbide blade for metal. It runs at 1400 rpm. If Susan intends to slow down the Everett to match the carbide blade rpm requirement, I feel like this would be a good approach. My DeWalt does and excellent job on mild steel up to 2" thick and does not make the kid of mess an abrasive saw does. I wish the base and vice on my saw were of better quality and perhaps she will have this advantage with the Everett. The only issue I can foresee is some loss of torque running the motor at lower speed but it sounds like she may replace the motor also.
