I would expect so !

The 7 inch diamond saws from HF ($69.00) are MUCH easier to use than 
a Dremel type.

The wet saw blades make it a easier to breathe device as well.

Having a fence allows perfectly straight cuts and unlike a shear, you 
can make board after board exactly the same dimmentions.

Also, unlike a shear, you can trim a sliver off the end or side or 
corner.

7" Bench  mount - 40315-1VGA  $69.00
7" Portable - 91511-0VGA  #$69.00

4"  3733-0VGA  $59.00

Oddly,  they only carry the 4" blades,  3 for $10.00

Also, oddly, Homier has a diamond blade, but does not list it's 
size.   homier.com    04269 Saw Blade 

The saws also offer miter guides so angled cuts can be made.

Yes, it makes the decision harder, but the shear, brake and roll can 
help make boxes.....  ( get both ! )
