Review : Best dry-cut saw on the market in this price range
This saw is simply excellent and the price is unbelievable.
I use it for all kinds of non-ferrous metal, ABS pipe, even complicated extruded forms like Seiki Screen Systems blinds with the mesh screen attached cut cleanly without ripping the screen out.
First and foremost this dry cut saw comes with a $125 blade. Kudos to Makita for always giving you a decent blade with their tools (sharp, lots of carbide for resharpening many times) that you can also buy again later. Too many mfgrs these days sell you an average factory blade that is only shipped with each saw.
Pros:
- Powerful motor
- Good ergonomics (handle, pull-out lever for adjusting vise)
- Face of vise is machined flat
- Vertical spring won't fight you.
- Thick, heavy duty base is aluminum (you'll appreciate that when you have an accident and the blade deflects into the base)
Areas for improvement:
- Pin lock instead of the chain would be...
I think, explains the few grievance on Makita LC1230 12-Inch Metal Cutting Saw not fitting or leaking.
Hope this Makita LC1230 12-Inch Metal Cutting Saw review was helpful!
