I have a small project i’m working on around the house and I will need to get some type of miter saw to make some cuts. I’m just curious if there is any other advantage to a power miter saw over one of those much cheaper hand boxes besides ease of use? The wood i’m cutting right now is only 1/4" think and very soft wood so doing it by hand really won’t be difficult. So i’m just wondering if it’s worth the cost to go with a power miter saw? Will i get cleaner cuts out of it? Keep in mind I probably am not going to go out and buy the 0 power miter, just the cheap one.
