the Horizon saw is as good as you can get well it was worth a try[8D]
yes you will need to buy cut off disks especially for cutting carbon shafts
if you use a standard cutoff wheel they will splinter the ends and leave a rough cut
you can get the carbon cut off disks from Lancaster they are very delicate so be very careful when installing them on the arbor because if you are not careful they will crumble in youre hand but will last a good long time if you use them for carbon only but will wear out a lot faster cutting aluminum shafts.
Hope this helps.
