I had a search and couldn't find much (surely this has been asked many times before...!)
Whats the cheapest / easiest method for accurate mitre cuts? Looking to test myself with a new build and the numerous angle required for horns seems the biggest hurdle so far. I'm sure many more will appear with time... Plunge / bench saw with guide rail? Large bench saw? Looking to do this on a budget ideally using what I have. Many thanks.

If you have any intention of doing a fair bit of panel work then it'd be a good idea to invest in a decent plunge saw, I bought the Makita (link below) and haven't stopped using it it does everything I need and Axminster did a deal with 2 x 1400mm rails some other accessories (like the mitre tool) thrown in for £340. |
