A: Yes it will slowly
A: yes, you can use the Ryobi 4.8 AMP variable speed jigsaw to cut through a 2-inch board. Be sure to use the Ryobi general-purpose jigsaw blade that is long enough. Also, move the tool at a slower pace and be sure that the blade is sharp.

A: No
A: A "Reciprocating Saw" (commonly called a Sawzaw) with a long enough blade would be a better choice. The handle, power, and typical blade length for a Jigsaw would make it pretty dangerous for cutting all but quite small branches.
A: Hello, Justin - Thank you for your interest in the 4.8 Amp Corded Variable Speed Orbital Jig Saw. While this product can be used for cutting all types of wood I would not recommend using it to cut down tree branches.

A: Sure. The deck unlocks so you can lean the saw one way or the other.
A: From the manual: "ANGLE CUTTING (BEVEL CUTTING) See Figure 8, page 13. Bevel cutting angles may be adjusted from 0° to 45° right or left. Angles for cuts from 0° to 45° in 15° increments are marked on a scale on both the left and right side of the base. An arrow under the motor assembly provides an indicator at each of the above mentioned 15° increments." - Tool manuals can often be found on the page for the tool in question. https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/fe/fe993de9-a59c-4d62-9b27-943546877646.pdf
A: Sand, thank you for your interest in the RYOBI 4.8 Amp Corded Variable Speed Orbital Jig Saw. You could make a cut on a miter with a jig saw but it would not be advised. A miter saw would be the best product for making miter cuts. Thank you for asking, If you have further questions and would like to speak with a RYOBI Customer Experience Professional, please call, 1-800-525-2579 M-F from 9am-6pm EST. Hope this helps! - Vini
A: Yes, but your cuts won’t be accurate without the template. This is for free hand cuts and not precision work. Buy a miter box and hand saw.
A: I suppose it could, but I would never use it for that purpose except when no other means of cutting wood is avasilable. You would be better using a miter saw. You could also use a circular saw and a framing square.
A: For plastic I would try the Diablo DJT102BF5, which is described as a Plexiglass Bi-Metal Jigsaw Blade.
A: Hi Dewey, Thanks for your question on the RYOBI 4.8 Amp Corded Variable Speed Orbital Jig Saw JS481LG. Yes any blade for plastic will work. For starters you could try the DIABLO DJT102BF5 3-5/8 in. x 13 TPI Plexiglass Bi-Metal Jigsaw Blade. I hope this helps and we appreciate your interest in RYOBI! - Eve
