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.

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!
