Wanted: Cheap Sliding Chop Saw
Hi,
Im looking for a good trade quality sliding compound mitre saw I don't care if it a second user one just that it's in good order, I can use 110 or 240. Have been looking on ebay but most are going for more than I can afford at the moment. So if anyone hear or know of one up for grabs or a good supplier please let me know.

Trago had a nice one but you would have to check whether they still have stock. But they only have branches in East Devon and Cornwall and don't do mail order. -- Sue |

I've got a DeWalt DW700 in immaculate condition, including leg stand.
£90 as it stands with a very good original blade, or £110 including a brand new spare freud diablo blade. I'm based in Norfolk, but in London once or twice a month. |

Aldi DID have them on sale just a couple of weeks ago Priced at £49:95 IIRC The OP did ask for "good trade quality" though... I bought the Aldi machine last year for a specific project where I worked it hard for 2 weeks. It worked well, and came with 3 years warranty, can't see any restrictions in the warranty ruling out trade use so for my £49.99 I am guaranteed a machine for 3 years. I also have a Lidl SDS hammer drill, now that has had a hard life having renovated a cottage and done masses of work on my present home. I even dug gatepost holes in solid rock with it. The original died at 24 months old, my fault really for using it to break up concrete in a fireplace with it flat on the old carpet blocking the air intake. It started spitting sparks and smoke. Called the helpline, emailed them the receipt and cover of the handbook, they sent me a whole new kit including the case, drill bits and chisels. Now that was a result as I had worn out the original chisels, and broken one of the drill bits. Mike |
