| Adam Chamberlain |  Best all around woodworking sawFebruary 19th, 2004 07:24 PM I've used table, radial-arm, mitre and portable circular saws. The best bang for your buck would be tied directly in to what type of projects you are planning on doing. Table saws excel and ripping material to width and can also do cross cutting to length precision jobs. Radial-Arm Saws are fantastic cross cutting tools and can also do ripping. Miter saws are specialty saws that do cross cutting only. But, you already own one. Enjoy. Portable circular saws are very handy to have on jobs away from your workshop. Try to drag either a table or radial-arm saw around with you. The new laser saws offer a new feature. Normally, if your cut starts to wander off the line it's to late to correct it. The laser beam shows the wandering trend slightly over one foot away from the saw blade. This distance give you chance to correct your cut. I hope this has helped. |
