- Did you look at any of the 'sliding' mitre saws? I don't know it they are in your price range or not - I suspect some of the smaller units aimed at home owners might be close. A sliding mitre saw is

- The newer model of the MSUV is a bit smaller and looks quite a bit lighter than the one we have. As Doug points out, it can be used with brands other than Ridgid. Unless you're always going to use th

- Or to be contrary, you could get a pretty good used radial arm saw (or four or five really crappy ones) for your budget. Look for an older DeWalt or Delta from the 50s or 60s. _______________________
