Thank you both George, Scott.

Well, I must say that I think it’s a madness for the prices these Sliding Compound Miter saws are going for. For another 100 or so, a person could have a good quality cast iron table saw.
As far as Makita LS1013L , that’s was my third choice if I consider a 10”. I’ve seen that for around 370.
If I wasn’t so afraid of using table saws, and too lazy to set it up properly, I think that would cover most operations and there would be no need for glide compound saw.
My concern is that can a table saw (with me operating it shakily and not setup 100%) produce as accurate angle cuts as a miter saw.
Maybe I should just get a nother router :)

Mike, the key word for me was lazzzzzy when it comes to set up.
I'm sure if I get one, I will not use it unless i take the time to do it right even if it takes a month or two :D

With my 10" Makita I can get up to a 16" wide cut by cutting half the board, flipping it over and cutting the other half.
So george, If you have a 15" miter glide saw would you say it's possible to
flipp/rip 28-30 inches?
