Not really. Drop saws can be useful. But, not as a primary saw. There is no cross-feed, which is a priceless feature, and it really needs to be set in a tank. You don't get a proper 18" saw with a tank for as low as $175, but this will be limited.

Wanted this to cut down larger rough into more "bite size pieces for my 10" like with bigger pieces of agatized coral. Thank you for your insight.

Drop saws have their liabilities. The way they are cleaned and their need for screening to reduce oil splash, but they do cut big rocks and are relatively fast and efficient in a careful users hands. I'd buy it if I was trying to avoid buying a $750 saw and waiting a year to find it. Oh and if I was willing to play with modifying this one with tray, housing, etc.
