My New Mitre Saw.

This is my latest purchase.    A hobby size mitre saw that I got in a " Buy It Now" on Ebay.

It's a fantastic little saw that will do everything that I want.

 No more wrestling with small lengths of timber while I try to cut straight using a hand saw.  No more sore hands and arms,  no more nearly sawing off a fingernail!!

I bought it from    www.woodworking.com.au   It's a Melbourne business, in Preston. They are fantastic to deal with.  The blade that it came with is on the large side, ideal for thicker timber but not good for finer cuts. I rang up and ordered a fine tooth blade that will be just right.



The saw is a Sonic Mini Mitre Saw and it cuts all angles up to 45 degrees. The blade has a safety cover and the handle is on the right side for easy viewing. There are other, cheaper saws available but this one seemed the best and safest to operate and it gives more flexibility as well.

I think the Ebay site is called   Bills Bargains Online.  Worth a look.
