Hi Vince. I just want to give ya big thank you for your review of this saw.
I purchased this saw a little over a year ago based on this review. I've since used this saw pretty heavily all this past summer doing 3 composite decks and a complete vinyl siding job on our new house. I changed the blade to a 60T Diabolo for this work. It cut the vinyl like butter. FWIW, one has to pull the blade thru the vinyl rather than the traditional push thru in order to get clean, non-chipped cuts. I got precise cuts on all the composite decking as well...all flawless. It's a great saw, especially at this price point.
Here recently, I pulled that blade back off and gave it a good cleaning prior to starting the next phase of our house project. I've recently been doing window trim work primarily following the method used at Finish Carpentry TV (Richard)....all using this saw. So far, so good!!! Love this thing!!
Again, thanks!!!
Larry,
Thanks so much for leaving this awesome comment, myself and creators like Richard really appreciate the kind words and hearing your experiences!
I’m glad the review is helpful and I hope the saw and blade give you many more years and projects worth of work!
Best,
Vince
Put the blade in backwards to cut Vinyl siding
When I first got into woodworking, I bought a Skil table saw, band saw and bench sander. I still use these same ones 25 years later.
25 years ago that was a decent brand too haha.
Not only is this a wonderful review, but you also showed how to adjust it and tune it up right out of the box. That's something no one else does! Thank you!
I bought this saw and I love it. It can't be stopped. Although, the light switch shorted out after about a month, had to rewire it.
I couldn't see at 1st, but thankfully you got some different views and plainly displayed an angle that made it obvious, even on my tiny cellphone screen. I'm so thankful for your tool reviews. I'm a body man by traide and your 1st hand knowledge and experience. You've seen and experienced things over your career that I'll never see. Your word carries much weight. Thanks so much for your time.
Been looking for an upgrade from my Harbor Freight miter saw. I can’t spend much and this is certainly within my budget. Thank you for the review and your thoughts. I do woodworking on the side and this is a much needed upgrade. Harbor Freight has served me well for 5 yrs now. Time to upgrade!
Just ordered mine to finish up my hardwood stair project, will be here tomorrow. Great video, thanks again for the information and entertaining review.
I just purchased the same saw, so far so good I am just a homeowner with small projects.
Being new to the construction world you’re videos really help me in many things thank you very much
Just purchased this exact saw, it’s still in the box, thanks for demoing , would like to see more videos pertaining to this saw.
Picked this saw up two weeks ago on Amazon for 250. Loving it so far!
Thanks very much for this review. I had a cheapie Chicago Electric sliding miter saw for many years, but now I'm working on a home theater project with a ton of crown and other moldings, so I needed to step up. I didn't spend a million dollars on this saw, but it's a huge improvement. Accuracy is very impressive, just as you found. I did change the blade to a 60-tooth, low angle ATB (couldn't find a negative rake in any local stores) but you're right, the stock blade was impressive out of the box for a 40T. Thanks for confirming my good impression. Great saw for the money.
Upgraded from an old craftsman hand-me-down 10", to a Delta Cruzer 12". Love it.
Those Deltas are beautiful
Had it for couple of months now and IT IS A GREAT SAW. Just a regular homeowner here
Thanks for reviewing the Skil 10”. I’m a fan of Skil products. I inherited a table saw, it’s probably 30 yrs. old works great. I’m a DYI person. I appreciate you really doing such a thorough review. The light / shadow bothers me. I have a Skil circular saw, the laser is non existent in the sun. Sailboat rehab - that’s the sun issue. There was a mention in another comment about changing the blade…going to find one at the store for more investigation. Really appreciate all you great videos.
I got this saw last year and used it to rebuild my deck, including cutting all the composite boards to length. It's been a champ and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I liked it so much I just bought the Skil 10 inch portable tablesaw.
*_Thanks for sharing!_*
I was given a brushless 36 volt Ryobi 10" dual bevel sliding miter saw for a birthday present 6 years ago. I use it at least once a week cutting trim and gutters and whatever else I'm replacing. It's nice and light weight and I've never had an issue with power even cutting red oak or pressure treated 2x8s i run it with 2 4 amp HP batteries (even though it's not an HP saw). It's easy to carry to job sites and makes nice cuts. The only complaint i have is that it has a laser guide as opposed to a shadow line.
@VCG Construction. Thanks Vince for the video intro of that Skil dual compound sliding miter saw. It's a great deal for the price and features. Yes, please make a video on how you make molding cuts on a miter saw. I'm always up for a good lesson.
Hope you, your crew, and your families stay safe and well.
Nice looking saw! Thanks for the review and showing the adjustments. I bought a delta 12” compound miter (non-slide) used on CL a few years back. Also came with a second 60 teetheses blade for $120. Guy barely used it. Been good for my needs!
Seems pretty good I have a worm drive skill table saw and I really like it . I like how you adjusted the stops not all saws are ready out of the box you need to check them , have a great day
Got this saw a couple weeks ago as a backup for my DeWalt, something lighter for when I don't need the 12 inch..and I love it! Great little saw.
Do you put it through fairly good work??
I got the Skil table saw on your recommendation and been very happy. Already have a newer miter saw so not in the market. Quite impressed with Chevron's changes to Skil.
I got an old Hitachi. 10” sliding miter saw and love it looking to get a new saw most I have used are ok but just can’t find one worth getting I was super impressed with this video
Thankfully you pointed out it was heavily greased as opposed to lightly greased ! Kidding buddy I am a contractor looking for a drag around miter saw. I hv a 12” Makita corded in my shop on a nice stand and it’s “Flat & plumb to the cut” with a Chop master blade (finish carpenter & cabinet maker). So when I do trim outta of the shop I need a saw! My 12” fixed Dewalt is getting to much to drag out! Thank u for the video!
I've had my 10" Skil miter saw for a while now and I gotta say it is a real nice machine. I has all the major features and it does everything it's supposed to do. Stock blade is ok for a while but you'll need to replace it with a better one, but that's common.
It is currently out of stock on Amazon so a lot people are wanting this saw. I would definitely go with this Skil (Chervon)! Vince, thanks for the nice detailed review!
Definitely the most enjoyable detailed no bullshit content i have viewed so far ,keep it up buddy,all the way from Scotland 👍😎
These things are flying off the shelf. Would love to see another video going through some of the features, your thoughts now that it's been a few months (assuming you've been using it), changing the blade, etc. Thanks for all the great content, VCG/Vince. Cheers!
I’m a believer. Own the miter saw, table saw and a few 12v cordless tools. The saws have been absolutely amazing. I been actually shocked with the cordless tools! If you a weekend warrior and want good tools at a good price, in my opinion SKIL is hard to beat.
I just had mine delivered today. setting it up tomorrow, and changing to a 60 tooth blade.
Thx for the review not too expensive 😊 Happy Sunday!
I just got it for 230$ including tax. I’m quickly falling in love with Skil. Their 14amp router combo is the best value out there, hands down. It’s gone as low as 100. I’m using this saw primarily to break down lumber and will soon need it for a lot of quick cuts when I move into a new place/shop. As far as I can tell with the few test cuts, it’s dead on straight from the factory. Good job skil
Hey Vince thanks for the video. Amazon has the saw at a 10 percent discount. Bought it yesterday.
Bought this same saw today for $249 with 11% off at Menards. $222 for a decent dual bevel sliding saw is a fantastic deal. Looks like it'll be great for residential use.
A 12 inch Dewalt sliding I was just on sale a few weeks ago at Home Depot for 299 I think. What I’m looking at now is the Bosch. Since it has a smaller footprint when it comes to the sliding mechanism you don’t have to worry about it sitting so far back like the dewalt and skill. Takes up less space for a shop.
Impressed you showed how to adjust the saw. I think even though the price is right, everyone should know basic maintenance of their tools.
I love these cuts of you talking while assembling things. Pure gold 🤣
Needing to replace my existing miter saw, watched a great many RUclips videos on almst everything out there in today's market. Much appreciate your review, walk-through and explanations. Most impressed by how true the saw is and how easy it was to square up the blade to fence. Based on this review I've gone ahead with purchase from Amazon. Anxious for receipt. Thank you!
How do you like it so far? I’m Looking to purchase it
@@jeremiahguadan2624 Thanks for your follow-up and with much appreciation. Couldn't be happier!
@VCG Construction you're so knowledgeable with those tools man, you adjusted stuff I didn't even know is adjustable. It would be amazing and really popular I'm sure if you make a series like "Tips for crafts" and just go balls deep in all kind of construction and DYI tips and tricks.
Got the tack life double bevel 10 inch miter saw for 100 bucks with 3 blades included awsome deal.
Just received and set up this exact saw this afternoon. It was dead on right out of the box. There were a couple or minor things I ran into: 1. The saw lock was pretty loose and would engage on every cut locking the saw down. There is a 2.5mm set screw there on the side of the sliding lock bolt which I slightly tightened up and solved that issue. 2. I wanted to put a 60T fine-cut blade on it. Loosening the cover screw to move the cover back to expose the blade bolt was somewhat of a challenge....until I realized that the screw has to be almost completely backed out in order for the cover to move. BTW, blade bolt is reverse thread: clockwise to loosen.
I made several cuts with various thicknesses, and this beast ate it up.
Overall, it's a nice piece of equipment, especially for a DYIer/homeowner/hobbiest. Great saw.
I know this video is over a year and a half old, but still want to say "thank-you, Vince", for putting it out there for us.
Great Video me personally I have a Jet,Festool and Hitachi which the hitachi has been my go to and I now have this one I think weather your a professional or diy person I think it's a great saw for the money!
I’ve had my Dewalt 12” DWS799 for 2 months and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. An absolute beast to my tool arsenal.
Yes, I want, thanks for review! $250 Amazon March 2023.
I like 10" because I can share blades with my table saw. Seems trivial but keeps me from buying 3 different sizes (miter, table, & circular).
I just purchased this great saw. However I need a tutorial on bevel cuts. Setting up for bevels and how to change the blade. Plus, if time, how to fine tune the adjustments.
Great video was thinking about getting the 10 inch RIDGID (Delta clone) this video is making me think twice
Vince is not just a charismatic tool tester and bargain hunter he is also a skilled tradesman 👍🏽
Nice saw
I use Makita and Metabo HPT saws. Although I could use a small 7 1/4" cordless saw. Electric is not always available and my generators make a bunch of noise.
I just brought mine today bro, thanks for the dope review showing the few adjustments that’s needed to be made and how to make them. I got it for $249 + tax!!
How are you liking it?
Like always good advice for us the DIY 👍🏽
Just got the 12” skillsaw that you suggested during one of your live in Lowe’s a few weeks back.
Picked this up for $250 this week. Very happy to see you have it a positive review
where did you got it thanks
250 dollars, uk must be crazy, I searched it and it cost £750
@vcg I cut some Douglas fir today, cut like butter. Extremely happy with this saw.
Skil coming in hot with that table saw and now this mitre!
Def do make a video on the adjustments! it would be a solid complete guide on the great Skilsaw PRODUCT.
This is a great saw & the price was good too. Highly recommend!
I would love tobsee a review on the hercules miter saw. Mine has served me well. I got it for 310 dollars with coupon. Thats a steal for a pro grade 12 inch slider
Would love a review of the Skilsaw 12” after your year of using it. Thanks VCG!
Not gunna lie I beat the guts out of my Milwaukee M18 10" sliding miter saw and I really enjoy it. Works great for me. Dust collection sucks but it is what it is. Great video Vinny. Keep it up cuz!!!
Awesome video. You did a great job with this review! 👍🏻
Glad you liked it!
Thx for the video, I would like to see you cut crown molding on the flat
U know something vince....I believe you sir have improved your game when it comes to reviews!
skil is my preferred brand but my next miter saw must have the rails forward of the fence, not behind the fence. as a DIYer my miter saw has a dedicated space in my garage and i dont have the real-estate for a miter saw with the rails behind the fence. The foot print of these types of saws is 8-10 inches deeper than the others.
Looking at one right now for $249. I think my decision is made! Thanks for the review!
Keep up the good work Vince
I enjoyed your video. I bought one of these a couple of months ago. So far so good but I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't have any detents for bevels between 90 degrees and 45 degrees. Also, when I first took it out of the box I was impressed with the cam operated hold-down clamp for quick adjustments but two minor problems: I doesn't tighten as much as a screw down clamp and I wish it was tall enough to go over the top of the high extended fence. But other that than that I like it so far. UPDATE: another disappointment with this saw is that it doesn't have a 30 degree miter detent. I made a cut at 30 degrees but it wasn't accurate enough to make a hexagonal planter without trial and error, Another saw in this price range, Kobalt 10" has more detents. Still, overall I like the saw though there is room for improvement.
Thinking bout buying this or the bauer, entry level trim work. No need for a makita, bosch or dewalt
I actually prefer the shadow over the laser line because regardless I always use my thumb to lift the guard a little bit bring the saw blade down to my pencil mark and then raise it back up about an inch or two and make my cut
It's also nice how they make the new miter saws they are lighter more compact they Incorporated handles and having that dual bevel instead of just a single and turning the wood upside down or you cut it the wrong way tools have changed so much even the first battery operated tools the batteries and tools together were so big it was almost impossible to get them inside cabinets you actually had to move the gun around test to get into the right position that's why my father uses the Milwaukee M12 because they're Compact and have plenty of power
Nice looking saw! I bought a Kobalt 10 inch slider last year for $219 and it does great. So I can tell you that you don't necessarily have to spend $600 to get a good saw.
Just picked one up and will be returning it. The outer supports are about 15-20thousands lower than the turn table (right support lower than the left). This is a big issue if you clamp on the supports (which is mostly the case) the work piece will be uphill towards the blade and not cut square no matter how square the blade is. I had this issue with a cheap "entry level" unit and swore i would never own one like it again, I didn't expect it on a $300 machine. I will keep looking...
Wish you went into the dust collecting factor. Thats really important because it helps make the job less messy and less work cleaning up.
Based on what I can observe, it seems to be pretty good at sucking up most of the saw dust
This is an awesome little saw. I have several dual compound miter saws. This is by far my favorite. It's accurate and lightweight compared to my 12 inch saws. 99.9% of anything I want to do is done with this 10" saw. My 12" saws collect the dust this saw makes. I can't say good enough things about it. I can't say bad enough things about my 12" Metabo. I'll never own another Metabo product after my experience with it.
@VCGCONSTRUCTION. Good review Vince like always but ill stick with my DWS780. She is a beast but has never let me down. I would deff like to see a video on how you cut crown molding. Be a great example for someone who is staring out or for that diy homeowner who just bought a miter saw and wants to learn from a pro.
a follow up video showcasing blade change and fine adjustments would be awesome
Skil sure seems to be coming back into their own! You should test out their worm drive mitre saw and heavy duty worm drive table saw they are power houses!
I know right? They seem to want to compete with the big boys now, their worm drive jobsite table saw is looking real fine.
Love your reviews,you sound like a you're from Bensonhurst,I've bought tools cause of you Vince.👍👍👍👍👍
@VCGconstruction I’d appreciate a tutorial/in depth vid on this saw for sure!
Crazy but I just got mine yesterday an then I seen your videos for the first time , must say as a first timer for your videos keep up the good work!
Glad I could help
@VCGConstruction any chance you can measure the base? And total depth requirements?
LOL, Loved the saw at first but after about 20 cuts with it, something broke inside. Not sure what happened but the blade would not turn but the motor ran with noise. Pushed in the button to lock the blade (for changing) and released it, blade spun again until I turned it on with the motor. Sent it back trying to decide if I want another or a different brand.
Great video. Just order mine on Amazon. Love more videos on it.
Bought it a few months ago. Accurate out of the box, doesn’t feel cheap, shadow line is excellent and way better than a laser, clean cuts with stock blade, fairly light, smooth slide, easy to adjust mitre and bevel, and plenty of small features like decent markers etc. The only thing I don’t like is it has poor sawdust collection. Great buy for the money.
could you describe the bad dust collection more. is this just w the bag or do you have a more elaborate dust collection system set up? thanks
@@nige_man Just with the bag so can't expect all that much...
@vcg construction Vince I would like to see your trips with crown molding. I normally use a circular saw but am willing to learn easier and quicker ways to save time.
Really liked this model and wanted to replace my old Craftman until I saw and bought Rigid 12" 70 degree miter with dual bevel which is a monster with lifetime warranty.
I was looking very closely at Ridgid/Delta 12" Miter saw, I mean, being able to make 70° angle cut without a jig.!? You can make some amazing "little trinkets."
Time is money right. And I'm looking to replace my current job with woodworking/Etsy store.
First time viewer. Great video and I like your style. Thanks, brother.
I appreciate that!
@@VCGConstruction Yeah, your video threw me over the top. Bought one later that day. Much obliged.
just got table saw ,love it , guess i have to get it"s mate lol
First comment I hope lol, just bought my battery powered Milwaukee and can’t wait to put it to use. Thanks for the reviews vcg
I like the idea of a 10" saw cause my table saw is a 10" as well. Dont have to worry about buying different sizes.
Nice video. I’m looking to buy a 10 inch miter saw soon.
Yeah, I think a tutorial video showing how to cut crown flat with this saw and the smaller 7 1/4" saw for comparison would be good! 🙂 For this video here, you didn't say how it does with dust collection unless I missed it.
Thank you for all the cool videos you and your team always do. I would like to see you do a blade change on that saw on that saw. I think Skil should not use a peel and stick bevel scale. It's just a matter of time before it starts to lift especially when exposes to high temperature.
It's on to the break of Dawn! great video!
I’d like to see the crown molding video with this saw.
Would this SKIL saw work with multimaterial blade ?
It looks fantastic and can’t decide between this and Evolution miter saw.
Liked the review Vince, & Nick; as really put this saw thru it’s paces and showed us ‘bout everything you can!🙏🏼
Like that saws are getting “better¹ ”, and seeing the higher end features, on more “budget & mid tier” saws for the pricing 👍🏻
11:09 No matter the brand or price; of a new saw (miter, table, circular), it’s a good habit to check the blade for accuracy outta the box. If needed, ya make those little tweaks and fine adjustments to get a “super smooth straight cut”; cuz in my experience (and opinion) doesn’t matter who made the saw; out of the box it can be a bit “wonky’; & usually might have to make a few small adjustments (doesn’t happen often, but there’s been times, when thought whoever adjusted the blade at factory, had to have eyes closed; cuz it was “that far off” 😅).
Always a great idea to check the blades, stops, etc...for accuracy 👍🏻 Also, it usually is a painless process to make the blade/stop adjustments as well (I say “usually” cuz I did have 1 miter saw, HAD, that was an absolute nightmare to make blade adjustments, not to mention swapping out the blade, itself. I bet some can make some good guessing as to what saw that was😉); so take a few minutes and double check.
Cheers✌🏻
¹ Better=meaning good build quality, great features that are exclusive to the “higher priced tier saws”, and so on....if anyone reads this part 😉 Have a good one 🤙🏼
Thanks Aepek, I hope you have a good one as well my friend!
Just order mine I can't wait to see its performance.
Where did you get it from ?
Vince - thank for your review and hard work. I'm a handyman looking to upgrade my old Ryobi 10". Do you still think this Skil miter saw still recommended or should I look at other brands?
I bought this saw couple months ago and love it! I got the table saw too match it and also love that as well.. lol.
Wonder how much if any deflection when the saw is extended out. Looks like a great working tool.
Vince is the coolest. Really good guy. Very cool guy too.
Thanks Rick, appreciate it!
