Thanks Swingman........It has a 12" saw blade. It will not move as I'm
cutting right? I just pull it out before I cut, and that then it will
let me cut like the 12". Is that correct? Don't laugh, I'm not
experienced with this. How does the price sound?.....Peter

In a nutshell, crosscuts a greater width than a non sliding miter saw
...
usually up to about 12", depending upon blade size.
