re: Milawaukee 12" Miter

I bought a Hitachi dual bevel 12" compound mitre saw (not sliding) new at lowes last year for just over $200. I’ve been very happy with it until I ruined the blade cutting firewood. LOL. That’s pilot error, not mechanical failure. I should have put the crap stock blade on for that task. Haha… Still cuts clean but smokes the wood like a Hungarian meat market. LOL

But yeah, for $200 you can buy new instead of used. And $400 can get you something really nice. Use the savings to build your own stand.
