Thread: Mitre Saw Choice - Help

Morning coenie,
I went through the same exercise a while back and narrowed it down to Makita and Dewalt, did not like the build quality/precision of the Bosch.
Finally bought the Dewalt through Bunnings and have never regretted it though suspect the Makita would do just as good a job.

Cheers,

I am new on the forum but have been reading your advice and review’s a lot and it is great. I need some advice, my wife started framing and due to arthritis she cannot use a hand saw so I am in the market for a mitre saw that will give me a consistent 45 degree cut. I have been shopping for a week and the two best I could find with regards to locking dead set on 45 degrees was the Bosch 10" at $370 and the De Walt 10" at $535. I found the locking system of the base on these two saws to be the steadiest on 45 degrees. Is the De Walt worth the extra bucks and will the Bosch be consistent. <o></o>
