Evolution 255mm sliding mitre saw blades

[FortJefferson]

Is there any reason I can't use one of these

with a reducing ring on the bore?

Thanks

Can't see why not.

I would avoid cutting nails though.

The 255mm evo blade has an internal bore of 25.4mm, depends what this blades reducing ring is

Evo saws tend to have odd bore sizes that no other blade manufacturer makes, clever really as it means you have to keep buying evo blades rather than buying a cheapish evo range saw body and fitting it with a decent bosch/trend/dewalt/makita etc etc blade

Most other blades seem to have a 30mm bore, so reducing ring from 30mm down to 25.4mm (1") are easy enough to get hold of.
