Chop Saw

A power saw, also called a miter saw, that makes precise crosscuts and angle cuts in wood trim and molding. In cabinet installation, a chop saw is essential for cutting crown molding, light rail, filler strips, and baseboard to exact lengths and angles. Compound miter saws can tilt and rotate the blade to cut the complex compound angles required for crown molding installation.
