Updated Mitre Saw ($550)
One of the favourite tools in the Canadian Home Workshop tool library is the previous version of this saw. The updated version is distinguished primarily by the 18-volt, Li-ion battery power that replaces the older model’s Nicad power. In fact, even with the Nicad power, nobody here ever complained about the saw. It’s lightweight, quiet and accurate, and ideally suited for on-site interior trim work.
