I bought the original Bauer 10 inch sliding miter saw about a year ago. I did a review and have had many people comment. they saw overall has performed well. however there has been a few issues that I have had with this all. I went and purchased a new saw. and I placed them side by side to try to find if they have made any improvements. the shadow line still does not work and I believe it's due to a design flaw. but overall the rest of the saw seems to be worth the price.
