Hi All
Well my trusty mitre saw finally gave up the ghost after 15 years. I thought it was the brushes, as changed them before, but it was the gearbox which had worn out.
I have a budget of around £200 and needs to be around 216mm, I am down to these;
Scheppach HM216 £180 - Has anyone had any experience of this make in terms of mitre saws? I bought a table saw a few years ago and can’t fault it.
DeWalt DWS773 £199 – I have heard some negative feedback on this model in terms being fiddly to operate and also max cross cut is only 240mm.
Bosch GCM800S £229
Bosch GCM 8 £285 – A little bit out of my range but have seen the Bosch YouTube video and it looks the nuts! I am a heavy DIY-er and also make furniture, is it worth spending £285 on a mitre saw?
Any pointers / experience would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
