eddie1976 Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Anyone have a Kobolt 12" sliding compound miter saw? I just got one for $199 for black Friday deal. They usually go for $299. I will need to make sure the fence, blade, etc. are straight and square. I have read that some of them are not square from the factory. I was going to get the Dewalt, but at $600, I can't justify it for the few times I will use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foneguy Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Just bought the 7.25" for $99. For that price I had to do it. It seems pretty decent, I know it's not the 12", but it's like the small one should be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 200 my expectations aren't too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like it could be more to it than just polishing the rails but I haven't tinkered too much with itSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
