Miter saws are saws used commonly for cross-cutting wood and making angled cuts. These types of saws are commonly used for projects such as framing, where pieces must be cut at a specific angle.

The Dewalt Sliding Compound Miter Saw is a compound saw capable of bevel, miter, and compound cuts. It has common woodworking angles already built into the saw, a feature that we find to be incredibly convenient.
