Alternative Model
For those who prefer a corded option, the Makita LS1219 is an excellent alternative. It offers similar dual-bevel capability and large cutting capacity with the added reliability of continuous power from a corded 240V supply. The LS1219 also features a 305mm blade, providing increased cutting depth and width, making it ideal for professionals who need a powerful, stationary mitre saw for larger projects.
Slide compound mitre saws are similar to mitre saws in that they make cross & angle (mitre) cuts in wood but additionally, by tilting the head, they can make bevel cuts. By combining the mitre cut & bevel cut you get a compound cut, useful for framing a roof. Slide refers to the rails on which the saw runs when it is pulled through the wood at a bevelled angle.
