It is better than hiting a jewelery store..

You should see the warehouse on the other side of the building.

They have pretty good security.

Not any more. I started buying her green lingerie, she now pays no attention to my systainer collection.

Do you think she would at least use my sawzall to cut me up?

Might clog the vacuum filter though.

I should show her where I keep the foam filters at.

bbgcarpentry · 02-17-2010, 11:05 PM

Kapex?

Or

Makita for dust

Rustbucket · 02-18-2010, 10:23 AM

Somebody posted a video of that Makita somewhere, and it's pretty amazing. That was with a vac attached, but almost nothing was left behind. They are both very impressive.

I also must say the Milwaukee 12" has impressed me in that regard. With just the bag, about 75% gets pulled in. With a vac attached, it's more like 90-95%. Pretty impressive for a miter saw, but maybe still a small notch below the other two.

bbgcarpentry · 02-18-2010, 11:16 PM

more input im worried about dust but makita is a grand cheaper

WarnerConstInc. · 02-18-2010, 11:22 PM

Well the makita does not have near the capacity as the kapex.

Inner10 · 02-18-2010, 11:44 PM

Yeah you couldn't slice through my fat arse with a 7-1/4" blade...although the thin kerf would probably slice through the top half nice and quick.

charimon · 02-19-2010, 01:56 AM

Darcy it depends what you mean by capacity

on the flat it will do any trim that the kapax can
so unless you are specializing in nested crown your statement is not true.

Now if you are talking about 1/2 the capacity to make dust you are right on as the blade is 1/2 the thickenss let alone capturing it

.

and if you are talking about less capacity to give you a work out hauling it around you are right again as it weighs 27#, 20# less than the Kapax

It is not the Best "All Around" saw, can't cut 4x4's or nested crown, but if you are running Base and Case once you go Mak you wont go back. It also comes with a

So give it (heck give them both) a try and see what works for you.

If you connect the Makita 2 a vac you would be supprised at how much dust it can catch. I think it works well enough without the vac but for the people who want that extra dust extration use it with a vac. I see the new makita at tool king recon model for around $430 the other week. Thats a pretty nice saw for even $600 let alone $430.

WarnerConstInc. · 02-19-2010, 09:21 AM

Craig- I was just talking about depth of cut.
