  Dang. I wish this special was on the 305mm model. That's what I'm waiting for.

  When I mentioned this when there was those $125 sliding mitre saws, the OzB community told me that sliding is very much worth it. 80 mm cutting capacity is only useful for very specific jobs…

    Yeah I'm tempted to just get a sliding saw when I get out there this weekend. Probably will be more useful. But no bargain there :(

    Definitely DEFINITELY get the sliding option. Worth every penny, otherwise you end up having to either flip everything and recut or buy another saw, like a table saw. Now i only use the table saw for bigger pieces

      Ditto !!!! Sliding option is a big plus.

    A small, compact drop saw is extremely useful. Due to the lack of slide mechanism, the drop saws tend to be a lot more accurate and repeatable.

    For example, if you were cutting numerous 45 degree corner joints for (narrow) architraves, you'd be far better off using something like this thing than a sliding mitre saw.

    It'd also be more accurate for cutting 35x70mm noggins etc as there'd be more chance of them being at 90° in both planes on both ends.

    I realise that it all depends on the quality of each saw. But as a general home handyman, I still use my 210mm drop saw more than my 250mm sliding saw, as it is more compact, lighter to carry and does the job.

    That said, these Ozito saws are pretty horrid quality, so you'd probably be better off paying a bit more for something more sturdy.

  I may be wrong but isnt $100 the normal price for this?

    Yeah I think stand is $99 alone and saw normally $79

• 

  bargaino on 17/06/2016 - 13:17

  Saw normal price is $79, and looking at the pic, I'm not sure the stand is worth $20.

    Yeah, I'd have to agree. It really is literally a saw stand. The stands that have support for work pieces would be much more useful IMO..

    Considering the stand, unless work pieces are very small, I'd be inclined to put it on the ground and use a brick or two for sideways support, which is what I often do with my metal cut off..

  BertieBrown on 17/06/2016 - 13:49

  Dang it. I really wanted a deal on the slider!

  Masters have a Triton for around $260 (no stand) or something like that, but I always have to sit back and question just how much I'd actually use a mitre saw for that money. For the amount I'd use it, at least, in my case, I'm better off with a mitre box and hand saw. Then again, if I was installing floating floors or doing framing it'd be worth it I reckon.

    No ripping if that's what you mean

  I had one of these saws. Was fine for cutting pine and MDF, but I made the mistake of trying to cut old hardwood, and broke it.

  siuol on 17/06/2016 - 15:31

  any ideas on where to get a stand with good price?
