Mitre saw clamp

[Lee Roberts]

I started out to make two, and bought 2off machine feet but when I got home I looked at the outfeed (RH) side and the motor would get in the way. Some of the more expensive / fancy mitre saws have the motor tucked away at the back so you fit two similar clamps.

Yeah mine is the same, it's a Hitachi, it's really quite a nice machine, well made and reasonably light, I got it cheap at £70 on eBay, the guy had used it for his home renovations, skirting boards, architrave all the small bits, so it was in really good condition and only about 12 months old at the time, they go for £250 ish so I got a deal for sure I think.

Here is a link to the same model: http://www.toolstop.co.uk/index.php?...t_id=7398&l=uk

It's actually the 110v version so I've got it hooked up to a "tranny", being 110 it's that bit quieter in operation, less power obviously because of that but it dose everything I need to do, went through 4x4 post no problem at all.

I hope to build permanent extensions for it once I get the workshop finished on the inside, that makes so much difference trying to cut long lengths accurately, I'm just using free standing roller type things at the moment but they tend to fall over.
