  • Exceeded expectations
Initially, I had doubts about the accuracy of a miter box as many are wobbly and cut into the plastic base. I was surprised that the quality of materials for this Craftsman miter box was excellent. Strong metal guides and base with wide range of angles and easy adjustment. I checked each angle with squares and all were accurate. The miter joints fit perfectly. The price was excellent for the quality. Assembly was easy and clear. The saw is also very good quality. I've been cutting miters in cherry which has a janka hardness of 950 and the saw cuts right through with clean cuts. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • No school like the old school.
For the new woodworker just getting started, or even professional carpenters who want to add that special touch to their craftsmanship, this is a great addition to your tool shed. Sure, most people want or need a powered miter saw for everyday work. But there are those times when a certain project requires a special fineness and finesse a powered miter saw just cannot deliver. Safely or otherwise. I bought this tool to cut small trim and crown molding. Still waiting on crown, but I have used it cutting trim and I am 100% fully satisfied, not only with the quality of the tool, but in the way it performs flawlessly. This box miter saw is built from steel construction and was a fraction the cost of other similar products made with plastic. Plastic... Are you kidding me? - LOL And made by Craftsman. I'mm 66 and have used their tools repeatedly on and off since my first job at 15. Back in 1973. I can safely feel comfortable in recommending this to anyone, even if you don't need one. It definitely adds a classic touch to your workshop and will probably draw many comments from others around you. I display mne proudly on top of my 4"x4" rolling tool cabinet. ... show more

  • Better than plastic, but it's not fully accurate and has other flaws
I needed a precision mitre box to make "perfectly" square cuts in some 3/4 x 2 inch hardwood lumber. I had hoped that this Craftsman Miter Box (CMHT20800) would fulfill this need. It comes close, but still below expectations. Issues: 1) The angle adjustment cannot be clamped in place, but instead relies on a spring-loaded plunger that allows a tiny "wiggle" instead of a rock-solid setting. The first two photos show this. The angle wiggle is about a half of a degree, which may seem small, but when cutting across even 2 inches of wood this results in a cut that's noticeably off-true. 2) The blade does not cut precisely vertically, but instead veers a tiny bit from true up-and-down. The third and fourth pictures show the same piece of wood after one cut. The third photo shows the two pieces butted up against each other "as cut", and they fit nicely. However, turn one piece over and butt them together, (photo 4) and you can see the small gap. (Wood is only 3/4 inch thick.) If the cut were exactly perpendicular, both photos should show a perfect alignment. Photos 5 and 6 show the results of a vertical 2-inch cut. Same results, but the gap is more obvious. 3) The blade also wiggles in it's holder, left-and-right about 1/8 of an inch. This effect contributes to the less-than-perfect angles and also the vertical bending. It's possible to partially compensate for this effect through very careful posture (stand rock steady and not changing the angles your arms make to the saw). 4) The blade dulled quickly. I made about 100 cuts through my 3/4 x 2 inch wood pieces, and the last cut took about twice as long as the first cut. Not a deal breaker, and frankly I don't know if this kind of wear should be expected or not, but I was surprised. Other minor issues: 5) The little rubber feet are hopeless in keeping the mitre unit firm on the workbench. Fortunately, the unit has pre-drilled holes in the feet, so I got a big piece of flat plywood, screwed the mitre base to the plywood, and then clamped the plywood to my workbench. Problem solved. 6) The underside of the mitre base is ribbed for strength, and in fact the base is rock-solid with no flexing. However, the ribs are of different dimensions vertically, making it difficult to clamp wood in the vertical dimension. I intend to epoxy some hardwood pieces to the underside in order to have a good clamping surface, which should fix this issue. 7) The little clamping dowels that are supplied with the unit are useless. I ended up using 3 or 4 F-Clamps to secure the wood to the mitre base. 8) It would have been nice if the height of the cutting base were exactly 3.5 inches above the base of the feet, which would then have allowed the use of ordinary 2x4s to support the weight of long pieces (which is definitely required in order to get good cuts!) BOTTOM LINE: This unit is a big step up from the cheap boxes with pre-cut holes, and I think the price point is pretty good (hence 4 stars). But I will be looking to buy a higher-quality mitre box for my next project. ... show more

  • Precise Miter Cuts Made Easy
I needed to make several miter cuts on a 4”x4” nominal board to fit behind a kitchen counter to stabilize a dishwasher. This miter tool has the size capacity for a 4”x4” nominal post which many other inexpensive miter boxes do not. The saw is top quality and fits the guides easily and precisely. I was able to make the necessary cuts efficiently and the resulting piece worked perfectly. I also used the tool for miter cuts on a piece of wood to aid in a plumbing project. The tool is also easy to disaasemble so I kept the original box for storage between jobs. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Good saw for small projects
If you don't want to spend a couple hundreds of dollars on a miter saw for small project, this tool would work just fine for you. Mind you that you will be doing some more work than using a miter saw, so keep that in mind. The part that holds the saw blade in its place is plastic and I do feel it might break if you drop the tool. That was a bet of concern because that plastic is an important component that holds the blade and ensure it works as it should work. Luckily, it didn't break during my use of it. So I guess as long as your careful you should finish your project. ... show more
