Answer This Question
A: 4x4 posts measure out around 3 1/2x 3 1/2, and this saw has a listed cut depth of 3 1/2". So unless you are trying bevel or compound cut (bevel & miter) the 4x4 you should be good.

What a great saw!
Unpacked and some minor assembly and the thing is right on the angles, blade, fence, miter.
On top of not having to worry about nails in used boards.
Haven't tried to cut metal.
