Aluminum Cuts like wood. Be careful though. The miter saw instructions you give precautions to follow for a given blade does not catch the metal (the part that is cut) and round like a ball on the back side of the saw. I have not read / follow the instructions of my saw, (and has learned the hard way).

Ridgid MS1065LZA 28513 Saw, 10-Inch Compound Miter with Laser

Cheap Ridgid MS1065LZA 28513 Saw, 10-Inch Compound Miter with Laser Review




I can not say enough good things about this saw. I got it for about a month and it works perfectly within its boundaries. Set up was easy and adjustments have been there out of the box. 40T blade it comes with is hard on wood and dust bag does not really work (like most of them), but can be adapted to a vacuum. Easy to adjust and relatively compact. Laser works well, and throat zero clearance is nice. Finally, I want a 12 "double bevel, but I'll use it for a long period of time.reduction equipment more than I do are better done with a table saw anyway. Excellent tool like most Ridgid tools I used.

Makita LS1013F 10-inch Dual Slide Compound Miter saw with Light

Cheap Makita LS1013F 10-inch Dual Slide Compound Miter saw with Light Review




Bought this on Amazon in April 2006. He replaced my tank type 10 "miter saw Milwaukee - the most accurate tool I ever used so far Makita arrived. Every time I use this tool, I fell in love with her again . So I thought I "owed" it a good review. I am not a professional trader, craftsman, carpenter, etc. - just an owner who gets too excited sometimes so over my head. I take a lot of wood perfectly well and convert 'em to sawdust and thresholds - but now Ido it with a big smile and with more precision than I deserve. If I had to choose a word for this saw - one - it would be good.

No. Make that SMOOOOTH place.

Being able to bevel and miter of both sides gives me confidence to tackle difficult cuts. I find myself enjoying that "something extra" bit of trim and finish work on all the work - it gives me an excuse to practice with this saw. I do things I would not even bother to try, if I did not have this tool. InBesides cutting performance and accuracy, it proved very versatile in my small garage shop because I can swing the saw around the place of wood (usually cedar dimension). capcity Nice - 4x4 Stck cup or 2x4 on edge with ease. My most difficult compound cuts so far? Attic Vents building custom pinion and mounting the coverslip strips (45 degree angle) into a chamber octagonal. The math angle was a bit of a challenge (!) But once calculated, the reductions were easy toset up and run on this saw - and died. Yeah, I know what you think: "gable vents? Gable Vents! Problem ..." Me too - until I got these multiple angle end cuts.

The saw is well designed and built with quality. No problems of 3-1/2 years (it is true) occasional use. The blade is excellent, with reductions similar to those of my table saw blade Forrest. Even with the great Amazon - free shipping, too - it was the second most expensive tool I have everpurchased (after my table saw). But I have never regretted. Not once.

Vows: second retaining clip would be nice (mine came with a clamp and two extensions). I am moving the clamp to the "other" side frequently. Like most Makita tools, accessories and parts are easy to find so I'll probably soon be a catch. Cheers!

PortaMate PM3900 D.I.Y. Miter Saw Stand with 6-inch Wheels

Cheap PortaMate PM3900 D.I.Y. Miter Saw Stand with 6-inch Wheels Review




The short version ... is study, take time to refine if necessary, could use a shim kit. Content, content with my purchase.

The good, it is robust. I'm 190 pounds and can sit on it and it does not feel it's going to bed like a lawn chair at a low price, it is actually quite solid feeling when loaded.

The settings are very simple and basic, which means that refining may take trial and error. As you secure the knobs to adjust the height,the arm may move for a change, so it may take a few tries to get the setup right. But once fixed, just a little care will ensure that you do not knock the adjustment fairly easy and no problem.

For me, the biggest problem is not with the stand, but with my miter saw, a Ridgid brand. The base plate is a kind of conical, then the front mounting holes are further behind. Now, the stand comes with adapters for that, but with my saw, the cards are toomany a stage. This is not a flaw in the medium itself, the conception of the poor with my saw. However, when you install the cards, one end of the saw is a bit higher then the other, some washers have been to Nice for the dock so it would be level. This will be something very simple and minor for me to fix, but it should come with washers / shims first.

I cut my first 4 pieces of extruded aluminum T-slot and four parts must be exactly the same length,which is 95% of the reason I bought this stand. It made perfect once I managed to set up and refined (15 minutes). So with that, I am very happy with my purchase of this right and shall have standing for future projects instead of cutting huddled on the floor as I have been in the past.

Makita LS1013L 15 Amp 10-Inch Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser

Cheap Makita LS1013L 15 Amp 10-Inch Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser Review




I had this saw for several months. It is a powerful but quiet SILKY SMOOTH saw right.

It is surprisingly high due to the drag functionality. I had to move my work bench to welcome him.

Make sure you have ENOUGH behind the saw.

I regretted my choice and wish I had gone with a bevel compound as the Dewalt 716 until I had to cut 2x12 last weekend. The Makita went through them as if they were so 1 / 4 "plywood conscoated with peanut butter.

WOW GREAT lumberjack!

Obviously a decent blade for the saw.

I really like the separate switch for the laser, I can use to align my cup without running the saw.

NO Why five stars?

Dust is not great. I put an adapter instead of the dust bag and attached my Shop Vac. It helped, but the system of an empty bench near the top of the blade protection is still needed or perhaps a scoop at the rear ofsaw attached to a real dust collection system.

My saw arrived with a broken lever bevel. It is only a part of $ 4, so I decided to order me rather than a problem with Amazon or anyone else. I also wanted optional accessories.

There is virtually no barrier on the right side of the blade. However, there is a factory option available is complementary closing a horizontal flange.

I went to a shelter nearby who seems to specialize in Makita where they have abig screen and they had representatives on the plant site several times in the past. When the salesman looked at the closing price of the attachment clip and they almost had to call 911 to restart my heart. Together, they cost more than 1/4th of the price of the new saw.

Even if I have a scandal for the bevel lever and attachment to the right fence.

The wait for the bevel lever was approx. one week. Good service, good price for a 3 "piece of plastic.
A few months later 2 + attachment closing never happened. I hope this is not so, I made a homemade setting that works, but is not, of course, so pretty. But the fact is quite as nice and about $ 5 per square inch of the fence is a Makita littttle expensive if it happens EVER.

This is a great saw, but it scares me to think what will or will not occur if the saw crashes and I have to wait an essential and very important! The letters S - O - L aheadmind.

Milwaukee 48-08-0450 Miter Saw Work Center

Cheap Milwaukee 48-08-0450 Miter Saw Work Center Review




I was kneeling on the ground for too long! I do a good amount of finish work. But always felt much of the stand and the cost of a decent unit was not worth it. Always pat the Dewalt stand in the center, but the tag near $ 200 was too high. I was wrong. The cost is less than the Dewalt. Not as cool as the extruded aluminum on the Dewalt. But well constructed of galvanized steel. I mounted my Dewalt saw to it without any problem. This is the same unit as proposed byanother manufacturer, but with the labels of Milwaukee. It went together in a snap and I was hooked after the first miter fit perfectly. No matter how you hold the longer pieces, or how you try and stack the debris of supporting cast. You always have the risk of slight variance in your tab. Just a fraction of the results seen in a huge gap on the wall. This unit is sturdy, galvanized, and folds easily. Nice Rides in the van, although you should save a chunk of floor forit. And as I noted in the comments of others ... Always love to buy Made in USA!
