Also for info (rizla01 please ignore), Toolstation also do a 10" mitre saw for £49.60.
I realise this is more than the Screwfix one, although this one includes free delivery.

Slightly unfair - as if you spent £45 at Screwfix then (NEXT DAY) delivery would be free with Screwfix too.... So you could say that you can get a 10" Mitre saw and £14.61 worth of goods of your choice for the same price as the Toolstation one.

If you feel you know of better offers than the OP highlights then maybe a separate post would be more appropriate.

Recieved mine today.

Excellent service too.

Thanks Screwfix.

At the risk of restarting the arguing I thought I should mention that it (the original one) has now been reduced even more to £29.99

EDIT: Add £5.95 "Packaging" to that unless you spend more than £45 when its free

cheap tools are crap? sorry to say

tandeh

i go through maybe a maximum of three jobs with cheap tools, whereas a good mke (makita, dewaltetc.) last ages

I've got to agree with tandeh, sometimes its worth paying a little more for a better quality tool. The accuracy might start off OK, but after a couple of cuts this will diminish.
I was tempted with a bargain compound mitre saw, and it was great to start off with, but after completing one room I soon realised that I should have spent that bit extra for a better saw. If I had spent that little bit more I would have ended up spending less on wood filler for the poor joints.

Its stilll a good buy, but don't expect perfect 45 degrees all the time.

If you want cheap power tools then get them from B&Q and after the job, return them and get full refund within 12month period ;-)

Most rooms don't have perfect 45 degree wall angles, either, so it doesn't really matter most of the time, unless you're building furniture of course...
