We have seen some great feedback from our mitre saws, but we have taken notes of some of the feedback you have provided and will apply them going forward. It is really good to hear you have an overall sense of confidence in our product!
Hi Dean. Great review, so good in fact I bought the saw. When you were referring to not being able to make adjustments to the blade angle once the saw is locked in to one of the predefined regular positions eg 90, 45, 30 deg etc ….. I think you had already solved that problem when you set the fence angle. If you lock the table in the 90 deg cut position, then square the blade to the back fence you have in effect set all predefined positions. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for the review.
You’re absolutely correct, but you are putting faith in the original machining, that a painted part isn’t too thick, etc etc. luckily this saw is pretty awesome and doing a brilliant job in my workshop
Here, in the UK, Rutlands sell a 210 mm version of this saw but it is sold under their name not Hyundai or Excel or Evolution. I bought one a couple of months ago and am very pleased with it. BTW, a good video with some very useful information that applies equally to the Rutlands version. Cheers.
Hi Dean. i am an amateur DIY/Hobbyist and enjoy making things in my garage, after watching your review i have now ordered the Hyundai HYMS2000E miter saw. Hyundai have there Black Friday deals on at the moment and with your discount code, it was a real good bargain. looking forward to trying it out when it arrives. thank again,
Thanks for the review, ordered one now. The fact that @HPPUK have responded and seem to take things on board definitely influenced my decision. Downloaded the manual and now there is a page about zeroing the blade, and it also mentions a bolt and nut like you've done to allow trenching.
great review, just went out and bought a 210mm after seeing your demo,it was £152.99 so i never bothered with the discount code as i thought it was a good price.look forward to more of your vids
I am new to DIY and have only built the confidence to work with wood over the past few years. Most of my tools are Makita and I was going to spend almost double on a Makita mitre saw. But then I watched this video and bought the Hyundai. I have used it twice, the second time getting better results, and I think it is more than good enough for what I will ever need. I was really impressed. Thanks for helping me make the right choice.
I bought this saw a couple of weeks ago and my one comes with an adjustable depth stop just like your bolt, but with thumb screws - there is still a grub screw underneath to set the maximum depth - so already implemented your improvement!
Looks decent for the price. I've got a cheap Screwfix Titan mitre saw with a Freud cross cut high tooth count blade. Does a good enough job for now. I really don't understand why most manufacturers don't spend a little more time on the dust collection problem! As far as I can see, it's a fairly easy fix with a simple rummer 'skirt'. I made one with card, covered with duct tape, which directs most of the dust up into the vaccum hose. Not perfect but I'd estimate it catches at least 70-80% more than the tiny standard boot. I don't want a giant box behind the saw for the sake of a bit of dust. As long as it's not giant clouds, I'm happy to hoover up the loose stuff when I tidy up at the end of the day. Such a cheap & simple fix for manufacturers to include as standard. It baffles me why the all seem to neglect it!
I bought this chopsaw 2 weeks ago (used your discount code too 👌😉) was looking gor something affordable after finally having enough of my over repaired 10 year old makita and im more than impresed. Cuts square, slides beautifully and isnt too noisy tbf Awesome saw and review…. Cheers wwj
Great review, especially wrt all the possible adjustments, which are sometimes lacking but essential. Looks like a very usable tool. I like how you immediately start customizing. Replacing that grubscrew with a bolt and locking nut is perfect. I would have maybe liked to see a little bit more “action” and various cut results - those picture frames were a good show.
Hi, the indents you mention which you lock into when moving the mitre to cut set angles are not meant to be adjustable! They are set and MUST not be allowed to be changed by design. Changing the fence is how you get perfect right angles. Once you have done this, then all the indented slots 'should' be dead on accurate. If they are not then send the machine away for your money back. However, you show that it is accurate with your frame mitre cuts, so all good there then! Good honest review. Question - what is the max depth of cut for a skiting board in the upright cutting position (i.e. not laid down using the sliding-cut features)?
Hi! Great review! I wasn't sure what chop saw to get as my first one but after watching you video I no longer have that problem 😊 I have just placed the preorder, Thanks!
I like the forward facing guide rails, the saw seems mostly like the verity of other models on the market but I'm still impressed overall and like yourself Dean I've changes one or two things on my saw to suit my needs but your dust boot is very effective though, I'll be looking at doing something so simple and effective on my mitre saw, Thank you Dean.
Thanks! I really like this saw and anything that makes 45 degree mitres more painless is good in my books lol Check out this video from Inspire Woodcraft, it’s where I got the idea for mine ua-cam.com/video/7HID6YleVsg/v-deo.html
Hi Dean. I've not long bought the Excel version of this saw and it is basically identical apart from the colour scheme. I agree that the dust collection is totally crap but as you say it's a brilliant piece of kit for a small workshop. Great vid as always mate.
I recently purchased a different brand and I really like the front rails on that one. Looks like a nice saw for the price. Nice to see another video from you. Take care
Great review, that's why I got my small hikoki because of the fixed rails. Your modification with the dust thingy made a big difference might see if I can do something similar
With regard to the adjustment of cutting angles, if this is like the dewalt setup, then you slacken and move the graduated scale on the bed to suit the detents then adjust everything else to suit. Hope that makes sense?
Oohh, sponsored power tools! Nice! Does this mean you are one step closer to becoming a UA-cam Influencer Millionaire? Joking aside: that was mighty decent of Hyundai to send you this! Cheers mate, happy woodworking! BTW: made the same adjustment for the trenching feature on my Bosch mitre saw. Don't know why it does not just come like this from the factury?
LOL nah no money involved and not sponsored, just sent to review. I’m very happy I have it, particularly as it’s not something I would have searched for. Great to hear you can do the same mod on your saw! 😊
Good review of a good saw, apparently not yet available in the U.S. (They'd have to invest in a different measurement scale, formerly referred to as "Imperial" measure--guess that's not true anymore!) I really like my SKIL 10-inch SCMS, though it has rearward rails; I have room for them. Had to add a larger dust boot also, which works extremely well. Thanks, Dean!
Looks like a interesting saw that. Dust extraction on my cordless festool with the bag is a joke so that’s not doing bad. Great mod on the boot. Certainly made it miles better. Looks a great saw for little money.
Thanks! Bonkers that you have that experience with the Festool, wayway beyond my budget but I thought they were supposed to be the best for dust collection!
@@WoodworkJourney don’t get me wrong with a extractor it’s better than most but with the bag forget it. Hope the saw serves you well. Keep up the great videos 👍
I've never bought a power saw that I did not have to square it up since the 80's. Seems to me that people in manufacturing this equipment could take a few minutes and do it so you could pop it out of the box and start using it. It used to be that way, but in the 80's it changed.
I think with global shipping these days products get banged about and have multiple temperature changes which will expand and contract the metal a little. All of that throws things out of whack, or soft isn’t tightened so when it gets to us it isn’t broken or impossible to undo.
Seems very good value and great that it’s got the forward facing bars. I watched the Inspire video the other day & he’s achieved a great improvement on his saw, unfortunately I don’t seem to have a lot of room on my Makita to do something similar ☹️.
Got this for 2 y now but the laser suddenly broke. What can I do? One of the circular support things came off as well. Apart from those issues, I love working with this saw.
Seems to be a decent saw for the price point. As for dust collection, you really can't go past a cabinet with a hefty dust extractor to keep the mess to a minimum.
Excellent review Dean. I have been thinking about a new chop-saw, but didn't want to spend the earth on one. The Hyundai at this price (plus your discount of course) looks like the way to go. Thank you very much and hope to see more from you soon.
Thanks a lot for a great video and some great tips. i wonder if you could (or anybody) confirm that the trench components are on the 1500 watt version as it doesn't say on the web site. thanks again Colin
a great review. was going to get a makita ls1219 but this was too good a bargain. just got mine today and yes, the dust collection sucks. do you have a template for the boot you made or some closeup pics?
Great review, I bought mine having enjoyed it. Did you have any difficulty obtaining a right angle between the blade and fence assembly? With the screws loosened on both sides I can only achieve 89.9 using a digital level box? I wondered if loosening the 4 bolts that secure the motor and blade assembly to the base would give me more movement?
Nice review Dean. It beats my evolution saw. Love the boot extension idea. That made a significant impact and I'll try to do something similar on my machine. Forward facing is great but I suspect the way the bag sticks out kinda negates the benefit to some extent.
Yeah I had an evolution for a long time, this is more accurate in my opinion. I never use the bag normally as it gets to my dust collection, I was just showing the difference in boot design. It definitely saves a hell of a lot of space
Cool vid Dean. Once you have finalised the extended boot design I can 3d print it for you if you would like. I have some black TPU filament which is quite flexible, it's a bit like stiff rubber. I have printed a couple of dust extraction hose adapters with it and they work just fine. :)
That sounds like a great idea! I’ve not used TPU filament so that would be super interesting. I’ll have to see if I can figure out how to use sketchup or something to get the design and measurements on the computer - don’t hold your breath though lol
@@WoodworkJourney If memory serves you have an ender 3? If so TPU is more difficult to print on it (but not impossible) as it is a bowden style setup which means a long filament path between the extruder to the hotend. My printer started life as an Anet A8 style printer which is direct drive meaning it has a very short filament path so that a flexible filament won't deflect and bend between the extruder and the hotend as they are both in a single unit. Normally with TPU you have to slow the printer right down to just 20mm/s which makes TPU prints take an eternity. My printer is very heavily modified which means I can print TPU at 200mm/s without print quaity degradation. I am also in the process of upgrading the hotend which in thoery will allow me to double my print speeds.:)
Nice bit of kit there Dean, I thinking first Mmmm...... M8 , M6 Hyundai....? I thought Dean's driving a car Down the M8 to get to the M6🤣🤣🤣 It looks a decent saw with a 2 Kw motor It seems to be better with your home made shroud on the back for dust collection that is a good idea That is a good tool review sounds like you like it Great video and take care mate🪚🔧🔨🪛🗜👍👍👍
Hi I'm a new subscriber in Ireland and I loved your initial review as I have been thinking about buying this mitre saw but the lack of a trenching option was putting me off but I was wondering did you have to drill down from the top to put the bolt in or was the hole already there going all the way through? Do you think it would be possible to cut the dust port so as to shorten it? I've also being looking at the Lumberjack 12" mitre saw as it also has the sliding bars to the front.
Thanks Patrick. I didn’t have to drill down, it was threaded all the way through. As for cutting down the dust port, possibly but a 90 degree elbow will only take up maybe an inch at the rear
As I mentioned, it’s normally attached to my extraction system. The issue though is that the standard boot gets very little of the dust created. I recorded and watched what this saw did many times in slow motion, it’s why I started working on the boot that works well for this Saw
Thanks, I don’t know if Hyundai do one but there are plenty of aftermarket ones available. I finding making your own works better for most spaces though
I’ve never needed it but Google says this…. “31.6 degrees, which is the standard miter angle for certain compound rafter cuts in many common stick home roof construction situations. Because it is so common, most compound miter saws feature several quick settings like this, to save time and ensure repeatability over dozens or hundreds of cuts.”
@@WoodworkJourney you're better at using Google than me. I couldn't find anything (using Google Bard though). The old man said 'something to do with roofing' ha. Cheers!
What you didn't do is try to change the saw blade!! Guard is in the way and there are no instructions in the manual about how to change the blade... So what is the use of supplying an allen key when you can't use it?
In my manual it does show you how to get access to the blade securing bolt by removing the guard. Sounds like there’s various iterations of the manual going round! I want a really clean cross cut so am planning to buy a 40-60 teeth blade (the one supplied is 24 teeth). The manual doesn’t say what size blades it will take, and suppliers seem to have a range of roughly 255mm blades. I’m worried I’ll buy one that will be too big or is wrongly spec’ed for this machine. Any advice? BTW VERY clear and helpful video. Much appreciated.
@@PhilipShoebridge I popped in a Freud 250mm blade I’d previously used on the tablesaw. That being said, I believe the angle of the tooth is importantly for mitre saws, no more than 7 degrees or something, that’s something that you should look into
I just bought one using your code and got 5% off thank you, regarding the saw, same as yours it needs setting up to be fully square I haven't done that yet as I have encountered what I believe to be a negative point or even a flaw in the design, when the saw is bevelled to 45 degrees you cant get a timber under the bars any bigger than about 40mm which is probably why in the specs they leave that measurement out, possibly going to return it, as a side note they have put a trenching bolt in

To fine tune the angle of cut, don't you adjust the fence?

Hmmm, looks suspiciously like an Excel 5159?
That power switch is deceptive. When its at 0 the Lazer is off but the machine will still operate
It’s not a power switch for the machine, just the laser
So glad I seen this video saved me from buying one. No electric brake and no soft start it's a no no for me.
Fair enough, not things I have issue with in a mitre saw but we all like different stuff 👍
Thanks
Welcome
Hi, can i ask what the height is off the bench of the plate where the wood rests? Thanks
I’ll try to measure when I remember
Why is it 31.6 degrees? Why that and what's that used for?
I’ve never needed it but Google says this….
“31.6 degrees, which is the standard miter angle for certain compound rafter cuts in many common stick home roof construction situations. Because it is so common, most compound miter saws feature several quick settings like this, to save time and ensure repeatability over dozens or hundreds of cuts.”
@@WoodworkJourney you're better at using Google than me. I couldn't find anything (using Google Bard though). The old man said 'something to do with roofing' ha. Cheers!
Great video.
Thanks Frank
What you didn't do is try to change the saw blade!! Guard is in the way and there are no instructions in the manual about how to change the blade... So what is the use of supplying an allen key when you can't use it?
You change the blade by loosening the Phillips head screw to the front of the safety guard, then it gives you access to the blade spindle to change it
In my manual it does show you how to get access to the blade securing bolt by removing the guard. Sounds like there’s various iterations of the manual going round!
I want a really clean cross cut so am planning to buy a 40-60 teeth blade (the one supplied is 24 teeth). The manual doesn’t say what size blades it will take, and suppliers seem to have a range of roughly 255mm blades. I’m worried I’ll buy one that will be too big or is wrongly spec’ed for this machine.
Any advice?
BTW VERY clear and helpful video. Much appreciated.
@@PhilipShoebridge I popped in a Freud 250mm blade I’d previously used on the tablesaw. That being said, I believe the angle of the tooth is importantly for mitre saws, no more than 7 degrees or something, that’s something that you should look into
I just bought one using your code and got 5% off thank you, regarding the saw, same as yours it needs setting up to be fully square I haven't done that yet as I have encountered what I believe to be a negative point or even a flaw in the design, when the saw is bevelled to 45 degrees you cant get a timber under the bars any bigger than about 40mm which is probably why in the specs they leave that measurement out, possibly going to return it, as a side note they have put a trenching bolt in
Just to add my laser is totally useless it points down the back of the workpiece, did yours work?
