Opinions - Mastercraft Mitre Box?
Any opinions on the following:
http://www.canadiantire.ca/assortmen...rtment=primary Mastercraft Mitre Box Cast-aluminum frame with fence Mitre angle lock from left to right in degrees Holding clamps Index scale Heavy-duty saw with blade Fine-tooth saw blade Pivot arm $54.99 Anyway, I have read that the plastic box ones are not really any good and found this metal one. Seems like a good one to me, but then again being a novice, what do I know. LOL! Want to use it to cut small squares, rectangles, etc... So, is this a good one? Any alternatives? Thanks & regards, James |

So, is this a good one? Any alternatives? It's decent if you want to cut wood. It's a waste if you want to cut metal, the reason I bought it (( This thing goes on sale regularly, bought mine last year for $24.95 I have no use for it so if you happen to live in the Hamilton, Ont area drop me a line...
