Late(ish) last year I brought a performance power compound mitre saw
from B&Q for about £35 as I just needed it for a few small jobs that
the jigsaw and sabre saw weren't suitable for. I was in B&Q yesterday
(Croydon branch) and saw the same model for £20. I have to say, I have
used good (Rexon, Dewalt, Makita) Mitre saws in the past and I can see
a little of where the extra money goes, but from a bang for buck
perspective I can recommend the performance power one.

For those interested it's the 1400 watt 210mm version. It seems
sturdily made, it's pretty precise (I've not actually got tested all
the angles properly), it's more than powerful enough to cut through
2x2's and for £20 I can't grumble.

Anyway, just thought I'd let those who might be interested know.
