Can't be very good for picture frames as they're selling it

It's really accurate! You can take the tiniest bit off a trim without any problem. I wouldn't be without mine now.

The only thing I wish it had is a laser. It's quite difficult to see where the saw is going to cut from above, you have to look right down under the blade.

Just added that to my watch list looks like I need this saw it's much more compact then my evolution saw

 

[Kyle Knowles]

Aghh I couldn't resist I've put a bin in on that saw on ebay
Do I need a special blade to cut from or will the blade supplied with the machine

 

[Fraser Tiling]

I bought the Evolution chop saw, but found the blade too coarse and was catching the edge of the trim, flicking it all over the place. Without a decent clamp it was an eye op waiting to happen.
Boxed it back up and returned it.
A pal of mine uses his all the time and loves it, and for now still has sight out of both eyes.
I'll stick with the Quansol.

U can use a bit of 2by1 to hold the trim down or trap.it under and just cut through the trim and wood and keep ur eyes haha

To be fair, if I sorted a jig to hold the trims it would work fine. My first and second attempt at cutting both nearly ended in an A+E appointment, so was put to rest as a bad idea, and told myself not to be so lazy.

U can pick up an evolution for bargain price on their ebay outlet. Warranty too
