My experiences with woodwork projects over many years have left me with a bounty of information and ideas that I would like to share. In particular, I have been using a miter saw for many years and the most frustrating and time consuming experience I initially encountered was choosing the right saw for my needs. After wearing out a few manual miter saws, I finally decided to upgrade to a power saw and ended up with a compound miter saw. The miter saw I chose has proven to be one of the most useful tools in my workshop.
I'm sure others are finding it difficult searching for a source of trusted information on miter saws and have many unanswered questions. Like me, they have encountered lots of reviews that simply promote specific brands. Initially, the only useful information I found was in-store demonstrations, and I only caught 1 or 2 of those. When I did find the time to spend at a demonstration, I discovered a wealth of information, and I could get my questions answered. However, I couldn't just walk into a store at any time to attend a live demonstration. I actually spent hours learning, in my workshop, from trial and error, how to properly set up the power equipment. So, I made many mistakes. It's no wonder my wife got the idea that any project I undertook would take ages for me to complete. I started searching for time saving solutions online.
Miter Saw Blade
I now save heaps of time by planning a project from scratch. I sometimes need a refresher on techniques, but I just look up a video or do a quick search of my trusted sites and get all I need. There is a lot of information available but its the useful information that I look for, and if I don't know an answer, I can easily find it. I now generally know when I will finish a project. Rather than spending many late nights in the workshop, I can now take my wife to dinner without feeling guilty that I haven't completed a project.
When deciding on the right saw, I was advised to consider the saw blade. Tungsten tipped blades will last longest before needing re-sharpening, but they are expensive. While it is best to use blades at least 10 inch diameter, if you also have other circular saws then make sure the blades are interchangeable so you will not be buying multiple blades of the same size.
I discovered a great deal of useful information on miter saw usage, accessories and safety. There is so much information out there, I have found it more efficient to follow a tried and proven path rather than experimenting with different ideas. If you have a question, I'm sure the answer is readily at hand.

This 10", thin kerf industrial blade provides a superior finish cut with sliding compound miter saws. The 5 degrees negative hook angle helps prevent the blade from being too aggressive and pushes the workpiece down and towards the fence. The .090 thin kerf blade removes less material than standard carbide blades, and thus requires less horsepower to produce equally good results. 5/8" arborFreud LU91R010 10-Inch 60 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Miter Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor and PermaShield Coating Specifications
