  • Yeah I’ve been renovating a house over the last year and I just use one of these for mitres.

    But I’m moving so and thought I’d treat myself.
    I just don’t want to spend money on an inaccurate tool. I want the mitre saw to speed things up, especially when I’m building the shed.

  • Understandable, the lure of a new tool. Mitre saws are pretty neat but I wouldn't be looking below £250 in the long run. TW's suggestion of a circular saw and jig is pretty good. You might even find some second hand options that function as cut off and circular track that would last a lifetime of diy for a bit more money. A Mafell KSS300 sold on eBay for £206, that's a lot of saw for the money. There are loads of good second hand tools out there as people find they don't use them once the projects finished.
