Shopping Your workshop just isn't complete until you've got all the tools and that includes a miter saw. But what's the difference between a compound miter saw, sliding compound miter saw, and just a plain miter saw? Read on for the answers. The motor for a miter saw is mounted on an arm that swings and pivots left to right so that you can do angled cuts. A compound miter saw motor not only swings left and right it also tilts so you can do beveled cuts. Because this style of saw can not only go left to right but also up and down it is perfect for doing things such as crown molding flooring, or picture frames. They cost a little more but the benefits are certainly worth it. A sliding compound miter saw also has a feature which allows it to slide like a radial arm saw does. This means you can make longer cuts in just one pass. Sometimes as much as 12" depending on the saw. And some extra features are always nice for making your life easier.

Blade Size Blades come in 8", 10", and 12" and remember the larger the blade the longer the cut so it's an important consideration when selecting your saw. 2. Positive Stops The more positive stops the saw has the less setup time you will have. These factory set points are a nice perk. 3. Self Retracting Blade Guard The guard completely covers the blade but it's clear so you have an excellent view of your cutting line. 4. Electric Brakes By reversing the flow of electricity the blade stops moving much faster. In fact it can stop in as little as 2 seconds. A regular stop time is around 12 seconds. 5. Blade Type The blade is the most important part of the entire saw and there are several blade types to choose from. Steel blades are the most affordable and are good for softer woods but if you are cutting hard wood they will dull quickly. High speed steel blades stay sharp longer when cutting hard wood. Carbide tipped blades cost the most but they will remain sharp the longest of all blade types. 6. Dust Bag Is very handy because it instantly catches the wood particles. No fuss no muss. You make the cut and clean up all in the same step. 7. Safety Clamp Some will come with a safety clamp but if not you can purchase one separately. It's a great investment as it helps hold your project in place. With little slip your cut will remain nice and straight.
