CONT

Slide saws make angled cuts and beveled cuts in the same manner as the compound miter saw, but the cutting blade travels on an arm -- similar to a radial arm saw -- that increases the width of the material it can cut. Most slide saws will cut boards that are 12 inches wide or more, further increasing the saw's usefulness.
