I happened to stop by the orange borg today as I am looking to get a miter saw. It is easier to cut down long boards with a miter saw than on the table saw. i also do some rough carpentry and could use the miter saw. Two saws caught my eye. No not the Dewalt, i have been off Dewalt tools for a while they just dont feel like they used to to me. Anyway I noticed the Milwaukee 6955-20 12" slider and the Makita LS1016L 10 inch slider. I like the slider becuase it gives me the extra capacity to cut wider booards as apposed to a non slider but I am open to thoughts on that as well. Firstly do any of you all own one of these saws and can give me any input on your impressions? Are either of these saws adequate to do more detailed finish work? Looking for input on these two saws or others that you think I should also consider. Any advice input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
