How good is this for cutting metal? Or is it mainly for wood?

If its steel, then you are definitely going to need either a bandsaw or 14" metal miter saw.
Search "dry cut" saw and you will find tons of info. Bandsaw would be another route.
There is a company called Evolution Tools that makes a multi cutter, there are a couple of models. Mixed reviews. Personally I would avoid them? Get a dedicated saw for each, even if its a abrasive 14" ($100) and a 12" wood miter saw ($100).

I'd think you could cut Al all day long. I have a DeWalt 12" miter that only cuts Al tube and flat bar (I never work w wood)
IME Al creates far less drag than a not-bone-dry 2x6
For ferrous, no. It's an expensive saw to trash it like this. Buy a HF beater if you're compelled to cut steel in a wood saw.
