| The radial arm saw has been around since the 1920s, and was largely replaced by the mitre saw back in the 1970s. However, many still find that the radial arm saw does the work it's supposed to, and is a nice alternative to mitre or table saws . The radial arm saw requires less space clearance for use, as well as less space for storage than the table saw. When used properly, this saw is safer than others, and works well on many woodworking projects. All models will come with various safety features, like emergency brakes. But remember, proper training in utilising this equipment is severely recommended before purchase or use. | |
