1.0 out of 5 stars Buy the Makita LS1030N instead, June 4, 2000

This review is from: Delta 36-070 10-Inch Power Miter Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

Bought the Makita 10" saw and a Delta at the same time -- 7 years ago. The Delta felt cheap coming out of the box and I should have returned it then. Lots of plastic, motor that jammed on 1/2 inch plywood, it felt like I had bought something disposible. In contrast, the Makita was solid then and is in perfect condition today. Better motor, better design (safety guard didn't fall off after the first week) and the blade still cuts though 4x4 treated lumber like its a shim. I've tested a lot of Makita tools since and they along with Milwaukee and DeWalt seem a clear grade above the rest.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delta 36-070 10 Miter Saw, January 18, 2000

This is a great saw with respect to its quality and durability. The most significant drawback is its inability to perform compound cuts. For the rough carpenter, this is the tool. Its dentent stops are extemely accurate and the run out (wobbly spinning) is minimal. Perfect miters can be attained with little practice. For the price, it may be worth the extra money for the compound miter saw.

3.0 out of 5 stars Compound Mitre Saw is better!, January 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Delta 36-070 10-Inch Power Miter Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

For 50 or so more dollars, you could not only buy yourself a compound mitre, that Bevels 45° left AND right, with the ability to bevel to 48°, allowing the user to flip the saw, not the work. It is a lot easier to swing the saw head in a different direction than it is an 18 foot piece of fragile molding!
