A: About 10 inches! However it lacks the sufficient power for anything more than 1 by material. I have several Ridged tools and pleased with most. As Tim Taylor would say "this tool needs more power"!

I am a first time user of a chop saw. I've been very pleased with it. One important reason for going with RIGID is my satisfaction with my RIGID drill.

Cuts well, but table lock tolerances leave a bit to be desired
Cuts well, but the angle latches were off on the table. The table locks were ~.5deg off on one side only so the miter joints weren't perfect and never will be. Problem is that the table has no way to hold the latch out of the locks so if you're trying to cut on 45deg, as soon as the saw starts it falls right into its lock at 45.5deg. I'd have added a stop like some of the other saws or at least an option to put one in later.

Great little saw
This was purchased to replace my old Ridgid Miter Saw from, if I remember correctly, 1984. That saw was a beast so I got another from Ridgid. So far I love this new one no complaints and it was a great price. I will add a picture of the old and the new saw. Which by the way still works, but there is something intermittent with the electrical components.I hope this new one lasts as long as the old one.

Good basic miter saw - NOT DUAL BEVEL!!!
A good basic miter saw. Easy to set up. Accurate enough for basic work - baseboards, casings, rough cuts, but IT IS NOT A DUAL BEVEL MACHINE up to 48 degrees. Ridgid confirmed this, but continue to falsely advertise. The problem is the fence. It has not be designed to allow the motor assembly to pass on right for bevels beyond 33.9 degrees. Works fine for cuts on the left up to 48. Just know this if you consider buying it. 4-stars for a good basic unit minus 1 for design flaw = 3 stars.

Other that the miter arm being so tight when I took it out of the box, and not moving to 90° (I figured it out) It’s very easy to use

In love
I bought this saw for its 70 degree miter capabilities. I couldn't be happier. It was close to square out of the box and was easy enough to adjust. It's got power and amazing capabilities.

Check Your Fence Bolts Immediately!!
Check your fence bolts ASAP!! I may have been a one-off issue, but I waited a year and now regret it. They used so much loctite I had to drill the bolt heads off, beat the fence off with a mallet, and then broke two bosses trying to extract the screws.

I wanted this thing when it first came out. That one only was able to cut at a single angle on the pivot. This one can cut both sides and I feel like it's so much better than what I was expecting. Very quiet cuts really well very straight cuts that was one thing I was very surprised about. I really do like it and I have it attached to the wall in my van compact enough to do what I need to do. I already have a 12-in miter saw and bringing that along everywhere just to cut small little pieces is a pain. Having this compact miter saw battery pack is perfect for all the little jobs that I do. And if I need to do a big job I still have my 12-in miter saw. Honestly though I was able to cut a 4x4 post no problem and couldn't believe that I was even able to cut a 6x6 post I had to spend it around on all four sides but it did cut. One thing I do have to say that was one issue. The little sticker that allows you to get the degrees came off. But I called up Bridget and they sent me out another one for free. Wasn't too much of a big deal.
