Rant: My miter saw kept binding on wet pressure treated 2x12s.
I was cutting a bunch of PT for a deck in Tacoma last week and the blade was smoking. I tried spraying the blade with some WD-40 as a lube and it cut smooth as butter. Anyone else have a better trick for this?

Yeah, @kai_ramirez38 is right about the fire risk. I mean, I saw a guy's sawdust pile smolder once after he tried something like that.

WD-40 is a terrible idea, it's not a lubricant for cutting. You're just making a mess and it's a fire risk. Let the wood dry first or use a proper blade.
