Miter Saw
What is a miter saw good for?
A miter saw is a specialized tool that lets you make cuts at a variety of angles. The saw has a blade mounted on a swing arm that pivots left or right to produce angled cuts. You can use a miter saw to quickly make cuts for crown moulding, picture frames, door frames, window casings, and more.
What are the 3 types of miter saws?
All miter saws produce precise angled cuts ideal for a wide range of uses. There are three types of miter saws: sliding, compound and sliding compound.
Sliding Miter Saws
Sliding miter saws have their blade mounted to a sturdy metal track similar to radial arm saws. This design allows you to push the blade forward instead of down and increases the cutting capacity to accommodate wider materials. Sliding miter saws can perform crosscuts and miter cuts, and are typically heavier than compound miter saws.
Compound Miter Saws
Compound miter saws have their blade mounted to the arm for a downward cutting motion. It can swing left and right to produce crosscuts and miter cuts and tilt for bevel and compound cuts. Dual-bevel models allow bevel and compound cuts in both directions without flipping your workpiece. Compound miter saws are ideal for narrower materials.
Sliding Compound Miter Saws
Sliding compound miter saws combine the advantages of cutting capacity found in sliding miter saws with the cutting flexibility of compound miter saws. If your home improvement projects require a gamut of cutting angles and sizes, this is the perfect miter saw for you.
