Power Tools: Finding the Best

There are many manufacturers of power tools, some will tell you that Bosch is the best while others will tell you to get a Dewalt power tool. The most important aspect when looking at power tools is to make sure it can do the job without breaking down. Power tools can be expensive; most times they are a couple of hundred dollars depending on the power tool. Most mitre saws are at least $250 if not around $600 for the top of the line. Below is some important information about manufacturers of power tools.

First the most industrial power tools on the market tend to come from Kraftsman, which is a Sears brand. These power tools seem to hold up against time as well as the work. The next in line would be Bosch. Depending on the power tools you may even find that Bosch is better. Bosch is another manufacturer that has been around for years and knows how to make a tool that will last as well as have power for the job.

Makita and Dewalt while good power tool manufacturers are certainly not the best. They tend to breakdown before you get a good number of years from them. Dewalt power tools especially their mitre box can last up to fifteen years. Makita power tools are more for around the house. They don’t tend to handle the every day work on a construction site. In other words you get what you pay for. Makita tends to be less expensive than most manufacturers, which can be a good thing if you are looking for a tool to finish an at home project.

When purchasing power tools you need to look at a few things. Consider what you will use it for, how much you will use it, and compare prices between brands.

What blade should I use to cut crown molding on a 10" Miter Saw?

I plan on installing crown molding all throughout my house and I want to use my DeWalt 10" Single Bevel Miter saw to make the cuts. It came with a 40 teeth blade. Is that enough teeth to give a sufficiently smooth finish?

I have a Dewalt 12" Sliding double bevel compound miter saw and install crown molding quite regularly. I find that using an 80 tooth thin kerf blade does the best job on both real wood as well as on mdf mouldings. If you are doing your entire house you will notice the difference when it comes time to stand back and admire your handy work. If you are doing mdf and have lots of tearing out of the cuts you will not be a happy camper. Get a decent blade that can be re-sharpened and you will do fine. I have had good results with Diablo blades.
