Recently I got a little tablet laptop which led me down the path of eGPU’s, which led me down the path of aluminum extrusion which led me to looking for a mitre saw. Now that I have it and have been learning more about what it can do I’m super excited!

      Because otherwise you can have it kick up a piece of something that flies out and embeds itself in the nearest barrier (likely you), or you might do something stupid and let a finger cross paths with the still spinning blade before the guard gets in the way.

        Oh okay. I have this model of saw and that hasn’t been an issue but I suppose that’s a thing that could happen.
