HAlloween festival Friday night, sat at soccer, then wife went dress shopping and we went to a wedding, sunday Mini Me #1 got the cold (prob fro soccer) so we just went for a drive, got some soccer jerseys for a belated birthday gift and had some decent mexican food.
Halloween pot luck at work today and then 2 more festivals tonight if the kiddos are up for it....Cant believe its November tomorrow! Landlord being a douche about getting back to me so looks like im moving in 2 months....bah!
yeah, definitely will get a sliding one when the time comes, no reason not to for future-proofing's sake, just a few more doll hairs from the get-go. Although I've been really eyeing the Dewalt one. How do ya like your Makita doe tacobella?
I definitely got my money's worth out of that saw. I've used it so much... It has the laser feature on it, but it really is shit. I wouldn't opt for it next time.
I'm a brand name whore... Whatever brand I go with, I like to stick with it for as much stuff as possible. My brother is a dewalt guy, so I figured I'd try Makita. It's been great. Tools are pricey, but I feel they're worth it. I also like that Makita has a service center here in town in case something does fail.
Beyond that, when I was doing comparos, dewalt, Makita, Milwaukee all seem more or less the same. One brand excels here, the other brand excels there... I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.
honestly...
at the higher trim levels, I think it boils down to what color you want in your garage...that makita teal goes well with your eyes...then you get all OCD liek fuck that I ain't going lime green hitachi or yellow dewalt and have it NOT match.

mine is the LS1016L, I believe. I got the lowly 10 incher
but you can get it without the laser. The "L" at the end of the model number just means it has the laser feature. It's useless if you know how to line up a saw blade. I have a stand for my saw too. You can get one as a set (they add an "X" into the model name), but I bought a separate Makita stand... The one that comes in the package is pretty basic... I was able to get a one from the Makita service center that is much nicer than the packaged one... But it's heavy as fuck.
Adam, no doubt man...my laser stopped working on mine...I usually mark it...then come down and touch the blade on the trash side of the cut and adjust to get it right at the line
I was very annoyed at having to go dewalt on my big boy gun...but the makita wasn't in stock anywhere and didn't include batteries at the same or higher pricepoint.

Dude, IKEA blow mold case of tools doesn't count.
Forget a job, get yourself a fkng toolbox before that hot gf of yours realizes you have a vagina too. (assuming she's not the one with the dick and a toolbox here, benefit of the doubt since we're bros).

The 10 incher has never let me down.. Because it slides, it made easy work out of cutting 2x12s. I guess there was the odd time a 12" would have been preferred, but I was always able to make the one I have work... If I remember correctly, the only times a 10 wasn't enough was when I was cutting more than one board at a time.
plus, cheaper replacement blades for the 10... And it seems 10 blades are more readily available than 12. Lowes has like a dozen different 10 blades... Only 2-3 of the 12s.
He lives on the east coast. Their Toolboxes consist of a roll of duct tape, a hammer and a sledge hammer. If one of the three cant fix it, it's not worth fixing.
