Hitachi C12LDH 12″ Dual Compound Miter Saw w/ Digital Miter Display

This is the by far the most complete miter saw I’ve ever used. No matter what the project, this 12 inch compound miter saw does it all. Begin­ning with the Hitachi laser marker system, that you can turn on before the blade starts, and it’s easily adjustable to the left or right of your cut mark.
Next, the thumb-actuated miter stops allow for simple miter adjust­ments, and after you set your bevel angle a micro-bevel adjust­ment knob provides precise angle adjust­ment for superb accu­racy. The pivoting aluminum fence is 5–1/8 inches high make cutting crown molding a snap. The powerful 15-amp motor provides plenty of power for any job, and the elas­tomer grip handle keeps all that power under your precise control. So, if you want power, flex­i­bility, state of the art preci­sion, and dura­bility, this is the only saw for you. Defi­nitely the professional’s choice.

Festool 561097 Trion PS 300 EQ 8–1/4″ Jigsaw

This is by far the undis­puted, best jigsaw you can buy.
With it’s 3-way blade guid­ance, the blade stays exactly at the angle you set. This means you can achieve precise bevel and miter cuts. The non-scarring base plate takes the worries out of acci­dental damage to your projects, and the “fast fix” blade change couldn’t be easier. The vari­able speed control, low center of gravity, and ergonomic switch place­ment allows for easy oper­a­tion, and precise results. The powerful 6 amp motor provides enough power to cut through 4 3/4″ wooden beams, 3/4″ aluminum, or 3/8″ steel. When it came to buying a jigsaw for our high end cabinet shop, Festool’s made it easy. There’s no compro­mising here, just quality and dura­bility. Thanks Festool.
By the way, this jigsaw is also avail­able in a top handle model at the same price.

Skil SHD77 7 1/4 Worm Drive Saw

More years ago than I can remember, I started in the construc­tion busi­ness. First as a laborer and then moving into framing. That’s when I bought my first commer­cial circular saw. It was a Skil 7 1/4 inch worm drive saw. Before that I was using a stan­dard, blade on the right, circular saw. The first time I used my new skilsaw I was totally amazed at the power, the balance, and mostly the control I had over the saw. This was one amazing saw.
First off I’ve got to say that this saw was designed and built for framers and contrac­tors and isn’t for every­body. At 16 lbs it’s quite heavy, and takes a while to learn how to handle it. But boy once you get used to this saw it’s the finest you’ll ever own!
Great care was taken in the design of this fantastic saw, such as the precision-machined worm gears that elim­i­nate the kick­backs found in the lighter saws. The high strength aluminum foot glides smoothly over your work, and the large, quick-release, posi­tive locking bevel and depth levers make this great saw extremely easy to use. The 15 amp motor has all the power you’ll need, and there’s easy access to clean or change the brushes. It also comes with a two posi­tion saw hook, or some­times called a sky hook for safe hanging on rafters or joist. The push button blade lock allows for fast and easy blade changes, and the anti snag lower guard provides smooth oper­a­tion. I’ve had my Skilsaw for well over twenty years now, and have never needed to replace anything. And no one has built a better saw yet.
