    New Toy

    I love new tools.

    Just bought this to add to my tool collection. I've had a cheaper one for a number of years but am sick of adjusting it everytime I change the bevel angle. This is supposed to be the ducks guts of mitre saws.

    Have had one of these for years as a builder, still going strong.
    Just a pain putting it in and out of the ute. You get sick of the weight of it. Now just use a smaller drop saw for most work
    Will last a lifetime though.

    Mine will be used for amateur woodworking/furniture making. I'm just a sucker for good tools.

    I also have an old (20+ years) Makita drop saw which is also still going strong and more accurate than the other slide saw.
