And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Why slide when you can glide? Better saw, BIGGER saw, LESS money. https://www.amazon.com/Bosch-120-Volt-12-Inch-Dual-Bevel-GCM12SD/dp/B004323NNC/ref=sr_1_7?c=ts&keywords=Power+Miter+Saws&qid=1645739151&s=power-hand-tools&sr=1-7&ts_id=552940
I love mine….Bride got it for me as a present. Dbl bevel, and solid. 5ah batts last all day. Heavy but portable enough which is great when power is not readily available or don’t feel like hauling out the generator for a few cuts.
3 in 1 oil but.... Lube causes sawdust to stick, so the slides will always be an issue. That's part of the reason behind my "glide" suggestion. And then there's a problem with how much room the slides require BEHIND the saw, which is not a problem for the glide. If you're buying a CMS for the first time it's real asy to do it wrong. That's why most serious people have 2, the 2nd one being the one they should have bought first. lol
I've been looking at the smaller Metabo version (https://www.amazon.com/Metabo-HPT-C10FSHCTM-Sliding-Compound/dp/B089W3GQHM/ref=sr_1_4?c=ts&keywords=Power+Miter+Saws&qid=1645821846&refinements=p_89%3AMetabo+HPT&rnid=2528832011&s=power-hand-tools&sr=1-4&ts_id=552940).
Decent price, doesn't stick out too far in back, dual bevel. If I decide to get one, that's probably the one I'll go with. The Harbor Freight saw I had previously took up far too much space in my very small shop.

ReplyDeleteAgree with others... 12" is better and DOUBLE BEVEL or gtfo.
ReplyDeleteTrust me.. I own a single bevel.. sucks
OK, experts: what's the best way of preserving the slides? Any I've used always stick exactly when you don't want them to!
