Please recommend a good chop saw

[coreshot]

I've had my Milwaukee chop saw for 10 years or so, and it's never missed a beat. I built an entire rock crawler using it. That being said, I would gladly trade my chop saw in for a good horizontal bad saw. Much less noise, and mess, and you can set it up for the cut and observe it from afar while you do other things. I could save a lot of time in the shop if I wasn't having to stand at the chop saw while cutting. .02

I have used an abrasive chop saw for years and have had several Milwaukee
and De Walt probably the better ones i have owned

I was wanting to point out >> What i think is a more versatile alternative
to an abrasive chop saw...Being able to do both metal and wood and masonry
Being able to use this one saw to replace two saws is a cost and space saver

I only paid 260.00 for the rage 3 which is a sliding compound miter saw
you can get the chop saw version cheaper

Then got a Porter Cable mount for the saw at Lowe's after comparing to the others

As far as hot sharp metal chips i have been around drills,mills,lathes,saws,welders,grinders,torches,sanders.since i was a little kid
it's just part of it

I have the Dewalt 14 in metal cutting carbide saw, and the Milwaukee 8 in carbide metal cutting saw. Both work quite well.
