Bosch 5312 12-Inch Dual Bevel Slide Compound Miter Saw


I bought this saw that it came w / a free weightlessness miter saw stand. It was a promo. at Lowe's ... I could not resist. To prevent this review from being redundant, I agree with all points in Eric's review. What I would add is that if you are considering using this to miter joints in the bar (as opposed to clear the corner, it's a dream to use, I have owned and used Makita LS1214F years. I bought it because of its assessments at the time and some of its "functions" as a diagram on how to cut crown mldg. if it is flat.

When I first used the Bosch, the first thing I noticed that there was no crown mldg. corner chart. Disappointed. Please correct angles on the crown corners can be mentally demanding, especially when you cut the crown when it is flat on his back on the saw table (In this situation it is much faster than back it up against the fence, if you can get past the conceptual / math part). You need to hit places like 31.6 just make a clean corner. So I drew a picture on the fence, just think how often I refer to the table on the Makita.

Within the first cut on the Bosch, I realized that I did not need the diagram for the corners. For many reasons, Bosch is much more intuitive and all the necessary angles to cut corners is very clearly marked, and many have "stop" to really precise angles. I have taken so long, but I will say that I have made at least 40 in and outside corners w / OA only backwards or upside down and cut w / a lot less aggravation and thought. A very different experience w / Makita.

By the way, is zero gravity to stand Cats Meow. But both are heavy, but there's nothing like having a miter saw on a stable surface that can support 12 'Crown comfortably roll around from room to room w / no set time colapse approximately 4'x3'x3' and stow away in a corner of the end of the day in seconds. The frame is compatible w / many others saw the brand as well.
