What is a "miter saw"?
A miter saw is a power tool used for making precise crosscuts and angled cuts, especially for framing, molding, and trim work. It consists of a circular blade mounted on a swivel arm, which can be adjusted to different angles, allowing the user to cut at various degrees. Miter saws are commonly used in woodworking and carpentry for tasks that require accurate, angled cuts, such as cutting baseboards, picture frames, and door frames. The saw is typically designed for quick, clean cuts and is often equipped with a fence to help guide the material.
