An introduction to flipover saws: Flip over saws combine the functions of a mitre saw & a table saw. The mitre saw function makes cross or, by rotating the tool's turntable, angle (mitre) cuts in wood. By locking the saw and then 'flipping' the table over, it turns into a table saw for making straight or bevel cuts in large sheet wood material, laminates & aluminium. Because of the flip over mechanism, it always comes on its own legs. Click here to see all our saws
