Makita LS1040 10” Compound Miter Saw Review | makita ls1040 compound miter saw

makita LS1040 compound miter saw
I wasn’t asking for much as I hunted for a new miter saw. I simply wanted a unit that was rock solid with no slop in any moving part, super lightweight for portability, easy to adjust, precise locking locations for common cuts, high powered, and under $200.

With these criteria in mind, I went into my usual 18 month research cycle before plunking down my dough. The winner?

lithium-ion batteries recharge in 45 minutes and hold their charge a long time
between uses. The saw has a laser guide and dual LED lights, plus a dust blower

45-degree bevel, and the saw comes with a 3-year warranty.
