Good Saw, Could Use More Features [Posted on 2008-04-08] This is my first miter saw and I have to say that it was surpisingly easy to use. I used this saw while installing my new hardwood flooring and it gave nice sharp clean cuts. One tip is to definitely wear some goggles when using the saw. There is a lot of saw dust and it's hard to work at certain angles without it. The only reason I'm giving this saw four stars is because when making bevel cuts I was unable to cut certain pieces due to the size of the wood (only 5.5 inches). All in all, a really good saw for the non-professional homeowners.
Shopmaster miter saw is great [Posted on 2008-04-12] I like this saw. Being a beginner I was not sure what to expect since this is my first miter. This saw is great!. I matched it up with a Black & Decker Fire Storm miter work stand.
Unsatisfactory miter saw [Posted on 2008-05-03] This miter saw (Delta SM100M) is not the saw if you need precise cuts. The cuts in the saw I ordered would not cut consistent angles, varying by as much as + or - a degree. Using a dial indicator I found it very easy to move the saw right or left by over 1/64 inch at the center line of the blade. This, with all the hardware and locks tight. The problem appears to be a lack of rigidity in the saw arm.
Great saw...if you never have to replace the blade. [Posted on 2008-05-20] then it is a major pain. The instructions seem pretty simple but the saw doesn't function that way it should and you have to take a bunch of stuff apart just to replace the blade.
Delta SM100M Shopmaster [Posted on 2008-09-08] For the money you can't beat his saw. I used it to install a hardwood floor in my house and it didn't skip a beat. It is a smaller saw, so if you are more than a DIYer, you may want to invest more in a saw. The dust bag works about as good as all the others out the, but you can hook up a ShopVac to it and it works really well. I bought a Freud Diablo blade for mine to make fininshing cuts, and I also bought and Irwin Laser Guide too which also works well. Although it is a "Shopmaseter" it is still a Delta and a quality little saw. Way better than the Craftsman or Ryobi of equal value.
