Miter Saw
I need a new miter saw. I'm considering a 12" Dewalt combo. Is it worth the extra money for the radial arm? Is there a more precise miter (for around the same money) than DeWalt? Thanks in advance.

The 12" Dewalt is an excellent saw......plenty accurate enough.
I have 2 other radial arms in my shop and never use them for accurate work. One is a BIG ole Dewalt ( like from the 50's ) that I use simply to rough size stuff down, and the other is a Craftsman that I keep a dado head on all the time.
The miter saw I use way more than either of the other two.
