Re: Video: Bosch Axial-Glide Miter Saw
What do I hate about my current miter saw stand? Very simply, MY MITER SAW!!!. I've had my saw for 12+ years and no matter how often I tune it for accurate cuts, I can't seem to find a sweet spot. After seeing how accurate the Bosch saw is, I would love to have it! Bosch makes the best tools and I wish I could afford to have all my tools replaced by Bosch, but I would definitely settle for the miter saw.

I'm in the process of updating my home - new windows, exterior doors, air exchanger, etc. The price won't be cheap, but I want to ensure I have a healthy home to live in... Maybe this book should be required reading before someone begins such a project? I could certainly use the knowledge!

I'm not a professional contractor or carpenter,but I've built sheds and renovated my home enough to know the pain caused by hammer vibration. Talk about "tennis elbow"! Also, I have spent a few dollars (and have several hammers in my tool chest as prove)trying to find a hammer that would allow me to work pain-free on my projects - currently I'm planning a detached garage - but I would be whipped if I spent so much for a titanium hammer - no matter how good!
posted: 11:50 am on July 3rdI would love to have such a hammer, but until I begin bigger projects there's not way I could swing such a purchase pass the "family accountant" even though I am currently having physio for a 'frozen shoulder' and tennis elbow that caused it!
But if I was a pro, I wouldn't think twice about putting one in my tool box. Whether 22oz. or lighter,it's not the weight but the vibrations that cause tennis elbow and any hammer that saves your physical health would certainly be worth every penny. Now, if I could only convince the BOSS!
