Default Sliding mitre saw anyone?

All of course at 10 times the price of the Aldi machine.

Any of these will fulfill the role of a proper sliding compound mitre saw.


Tempting proposition for the average DIY guy. £500 for a Makita or £50 for
an Aldi. Hmmm. Wonder what the average bloke wanting to cut a few deck
boards would buy?


I got a nice LS1214 off eBay for PPPro money....

Very nice bit of kit it is too...
