Miter Saw Review - Which to buy Chop Pull Bevel

Get a piece of the molding you will be using and see if the saw is large enough to cut through it at any angle you will need to. Of course you can do that without the saw on.

Second check out motor repair shops. Happened to find out recently one here does the warranty work and has some good deals. Have looked at pawn shops and here Lowes is no more than the pawn shops but save about a third at motor shop.

Large and bulky also equals more stability when using it which is a real plus.

But do know the new price before you look used or repaired.

Miter Saw Review - Which to buy Chop Pull Bevel

Dennis, the only Hitachi item I have is only 5 or so months old and am pleased with it. Cordless drill and flashlight. Have already had to replace the bulb in the flashlight (drill has one also) and for dozen years never had to in the Dewalt flashlight. Also the Dewalt drill had better screw troque settings but still pleased with the set. Oh was that battery costly. Like $8 or $10 for two which is only way packaged.

But you are installing the modling outside I guess. Could you cut it to fit. Bring into heated area and when safe temp to nail take it out a piece or two at the time to install?

Miter Saw Review - Which to buy Chop Pull Bevel

Skip, my miter saw is a single bevel and before bought it talked with a good friend who is a cabinet maker for years. He uses the same saw and said the give up is you will have to filp the molding since you can not the saw. The little I have used it seems to be correct. Will admit for a short piece of molding no issue fur for a 16 foot piece inside an issue at time. But the price I found for double bevel was much more and saw much heavier but that could have been due tothe models that Lowes had in stock.

Is my experience on the flipping wrong being the big difference between the single and double bevel?

As to crown molding...that is a good test for thinking ability.

Dennis, one simple tip I have for anyone cutting molding is take a pencil and draw a line the direction the cut is to be on the surface that will be cut on the angle. Helps me.
