Evolution S355MCS 14" Mitered Chop Saw | Heavy Duty Metal Cutting Saw | 15A/1450RPM | TCT Blade | Slide Head & Locking Pin | Cast Iron Clamps | Mitering Base | Knurling Fence | Quick Clamp

This product is extremely well built and the functionality and flexibility it offers are unmatched. Minimal assembly is required and even with that it was absolutely spot on out of the box with zero adjustment or calibration needed. Vibration in the saw is greatly dependent on the speed of the cut, the material, the angle, and most importantly the blade. Some are smoother than others and you have to tailor that to your particular need. It is absolutely a value to have in the shop but it doesn't come at the cheapest price, I will say it's worth the money if you need productivity and accuracy... it'll pay for itself in time and sanity. It goes well with a fixed cut table or the Evolution hydraulic assist miter stand, you're gonna want both or at least one of those. It takes up hardly any real estate to fit in your shop area.

This saw is the master stroke. Not only can I cut precise angles in tubing, but I can cut bevels on bar stock ends at 30-45 degrees on the ends instead of grinding. Such a time and money saver on abrasives, grinding. If you need to fabricate with strength, speed, and precision, get this tool. So fast and cleaner than abrasives. You can cut a railroad track. It is a heavy, well-built machine that is worth every penny, but I'm a buy once, cry once kind of guy and I only wish I'd had this 30 years ago. Life is too short to waste time grinding when you don't have to!

Its a good machine. My only complaints are : the blades dont last very long, the vice " holders" always want to come loose when im cutting, the blade rings like a churchbell. But i do get really nice clean cuts. Overall good purchase. I build custom offset smokers. JASMOKERS.COM

I buy/own a lot of tools and I do not leave reviews. However, I have to leave a review for this one. 1) Assembly- this saw was well thought out and as a result assembles super easy. There is no broken English b.s. In fact, there are no words- they use assembly diagrams which are very intuitive (see above pic). Only one tool required for assembly and it is included with the saw. I had this put together in 10 minutes. 2) Quality- No flimsy components at all. Everything feels rock solid. 3) THIS THING CUTS!! My first cuts were on 2" square tube. I was expecting some shaking/shuddering and there was none. It went through the tubing in seconds. You should have seen the smile on my face after the first cut. This is going to make my cutting life SOOO much easier. Up until now I had been using an angle grinder but never again. Some user complained of chips flying everywhere but there was less mess than with my angle grinder. I only had safety glasses and ear protection on (not a full face shield) and the chips were NEVER a concern. Didn't even require a respirator. It is expensive but in this case you get what you pay for. If you can afford it I highly recommend this saw.

The miter saw is amazing. Can't recommend it enough. Cut down my prep time considerably with accurate cuts and angles.
