Default Miter saw accuracy, how much do you need?


wrote in message
ups.com...
i just bought a cheap 10" denali miter saw on amazon -- $47 delivered!
-- and, having never used a miter saw before, i'm wondering how much
accuracy i should expect from such a low priced item.

iow, what kind of tolerances are acceptable? my main issue is that
when i try to set the fence square to the blade, I can only get it
square to within about 2mm. See the pix for how it looks. Is that
going to be okay?



I do not know, is it OK with you? You are the one that the saw has to
please.
