The Makita LS1018LN Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Mitre Saw 260mm is a corded saw for trim and joinery. It comes in 110V and 240V versions. Makita lists crown moulding, baseboards and furniture parts. The head tilts both ways. A built-in laser shows the cut line.
Capacity is generous for a 260mm blade. At 90 degrees it cuts 305mm wide and 91mm deep. At 45 degrees the width is 215mm. A 45 degree left bevel gives 310 x 50mm. Dual sliding rails keep the head stable and accurate through the stroke.
The motor draws 1430W and spins the blade at 4,300 rpm no load. A soft start eases the motor up. An electric brake stops the blade quickly. A see-through blade guard keeps the cut line in view. The aluminium base holds stock flat. The saw weighs 19.9kg without its 2.5m cable.
Who is it for? Joiners and fitters who want wide capacity in a compact body. It also suits workshops short on space. A dust bag comes with it for a cleaner bench. The rubberised D-handle makes long runs less tiring.
