I was a little worried about installing the blade after reading a couple of reviews. But it was amazingly easy. Took about 1 minute. Works great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c . Cuts easily and is perfect for pocket cuts I needed to make for replacing some old deck boards.
Needed a 12” for some crown molding. Went clearance at Home Depot for $199 and they let me buy the display model for $160. Loving it so far
Bevel is tilt, miter is turn. Miter box is what they used before the invention of power tools, and was basically a 45 degree jig used with a handsaw.
How does it work today
Give the model number next time would be most helpful
The side to side movement is called the "miter" hence the name "Miter saw" lol Great video btw!
Lol thanks for that!!
Thanks for calling out shopnation. I got his 10 inch dust collection 3d printed chute. It works great and he has one for the 12 inch too.
Ya I saw that after I filmed the video and linked it below haha. What a cool design! Can't wait to get it on mine.
Man, we bought this for our shop at work and boy is it smooth. 👍
I'm here cause I thought you read the directions! You didn't read the manual either? We'll figure it out!
There is a aftermarket dust collection piece that helps. Redesigned.
Looks like way too much plastic.
Nice thorough review. I really like the light and blade shadow feature 👍🏻
That's my favorite part too
If you do a slide cut dust collection is a lot better
Makes sense.
What is the model number?
I didn't hear your vacuum running! I think it would collect the dust better if you turned on your vacuum since you have the dust port hooked up to your vacuum!
Shadow lines rock! One thing I have wondered is about how much movement do you get when the saw is operated at full extension. Does it move enough to make your cut out of square?
No actually I think it's fabulous, I've got a 14" Ridgid
It is called mitre cutts
The down side is really not the poor dust collection, all brands are horrible, but on this saw the motor placement is a poor design. It blows the dust right back in your face. Hopefully they will fix this problem in the future
Horizontal bevel is compound for the base/piece
Saludos cordiales desde Ecuador excelente máquina gracias x compartir donde lo puedo adquirir??
Table swing L-R = Miter
Head tilt L-R = Bevel
This saw has HORRIBLE blade deflection or actually the entire saw head will flex will extended out. It is amplified when cutting hardwoods. I couldn't return the Delta (2nd ver) fast enough because of this. I desperately wanted to keep it but any saw that can't be corrected is a boat anchor at that point
This saw is made by Delta, just an orange version of the Delta Cruzer. . In January, 2011, Taiwan-based Chang Type Industrial Co., Ltd. purchased the Delta brand from Stanley Black & Decker. Chang Type formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Delta Power Equipment Corp. to own the acquired assets including trademarks, designs and industrial tooling.
What saw did you finally settle on... I'm looking and don't want to buy a parade of disappointments...
@@bosatsu76 Same. Need something for production work, but need the rear clearance that traditional sliding miter saws don't allow for. That's why I've been checking this Ridgid out.
So, the thing that is supposed to suck, doesn’t suck. That sucks.
Hello Thaks for your Review, So after 4 Months what is you opinion about this Miter Saw? still accurate? any complaints? Thankls again.
This saw was on sale for $190 today at my Home Depot
I got one similar without the robotic arms. $200. Curious to see it before I unbox it. Not sure if I want to keep this or get a few batteries.
There is a bevel lock. You are forcing it.
This is on sale at Home Depot right now for $299. I’m going to get it
Great video love the laidback style that you did it’s like asking a buddy what you think about this saw lol
Thanks! That's what I was going for lol.
HD had a sale late July & I purchased this saw. I haven’t used it much but so far I’m happy with it. And yes, dust collection is HORRENDOUS!
Haha check out the 3d printed attachment from Shop Nation. I linked it in the description
Yup was $399 down from $549. Very happy with it.
@@WalkersWoodworks do you have discord
It’s in the name, “miter” = “horizontal bevel” 🤣😂😅😁😆
Sold! Ok well I was going back and forth between the rigid and the Dewalt DWS779 because price point is close but you didn’t mention deflection at all and from what I am gathering all saws have a little we just have to not be so hard on them. But the more reviews I watch on this rigid now I am completely sold on it. Well done video thanks!
I actually prefer 10” saws for this reason. They have less deflection than 12” saws.
My 10 inch ridgid has been the best. Bought it back in 2015 and still works like a champ. Picked up another one today for $200 because it was half off the original price. Still deciding if I should unbox it or return it and get batteries
that 'don't live, come back!' was absolutely necessary lol
What is the distance from the wall/back of the saw to the front of the fence?
Does the 10” and 12” extend the same distance?
Swinging side to side is the miter adjustment. Tilting the head side to side is the bevel adjustment.
What you are calling a horizontal bevel is a miter.
Correct
Thanks dude
Congratulations Brandon. I know previously that the Ridgid tools were made in the same factory as Milwaukee (same company). Did they change that? Also, there are two companies with an articulated arm configuration. Only one is premium though. Jay Bates had a Milwaukee saw and didn't like it. Good to see you back again.
bill
It's made by Delta lol.
I'm here trying to figure out if this saw is as inaccurate with it's shifting movement as i saw on another review.
it is. I bought the 10 inch and returned it the same day. The lateral movement on the blade is easily as bad as the negative reviews say. I am a trim carpenter and it would definitely not work well for that kind of work. Unfortunate, because the saw is very cool.
@@donovanhaas7315 thanks for that. looking to get my first miter saw, and now i know i won't be getting this one.
now I'm lookin at harbor freight's 10" Admiral sliding.
appreciate the input. I'm brand new to this
@@smokeyjo7420 Np, all of my cordless stuff at present is Ridgid, and they're great.
The BAUER 10inch dual bevel slider at HF is a great saw. It has a shadow line and can cut 5 1/2 inch boards standing at the fence.
@@donovanhaas7315 yeah they always say its all in the guy running the equipment, lol I have used my delta cruzer for many big fine detail projects and have yet to have a problem with the movement yeah i suppose if you are rushing the cuts but its possible you got a saw that wasnt as good either. you wanna try a real shitty saw get a 36v metabo 10inch slider haha pos!!!!! what saws do you mainly use for trim? i am needing another one and not sure what i want to get
@@derekmoen5382 Presently, I'm using the Makita LS1019, and I had to 'adjust' the rail sliders to get it to cut straight. Look it up. Great saw once adjusted.
You could be right about the Ridgid saw. With a good blade and a patient approach it may cut very accurate.
Residential construction jobsite work is inherently tough on tools. Also, a lot of the crown we install is 7 1/4 tall and about 1 1/4 through the belly. Cutting thousands of feet of that laying flat, with the saw set at its detents...the movement at the blade did not inspire confidence.
sorry junk!!!!!!!!!!!
