Compound Mitre Saw

Postby Dan0741 » 09 Sep 2015, 21:46

Guys,

Bit of advice if possible if anyone has any recent experience purchasing a mitre saw. I'm going to buy a compound mitre saw for the next part of my shed build and have found one that seems reasonable and not extortionate money. I don't have lots of experience with these things but want something that is user friendly, decent quality and performs most of the functions I may need when installed in my new workshop.

Does this seem a reasonable choice?

Cheers all,

I've got the non-sliding version and it is very good.
The slide mechanism has to be perfect to get repeatable mitres though.

It is £11 cheaper at FFX, that is where I got mine.
