TOOL REVIEW

With all its safety features and dust collection, the 50-750 is a worthwhile buy for the money, but a slightly more powerful motor and better anti-kickback devices would make it an even better machine.

Conclusion

If you're already a die-hard miter saw and table saw user, adding a radial arm to your collection probably isn't necessary. You've got your cutting bases covered. But, these three machines definitely are worth a closer look if you still need a big, versatile saw to

take center stage in your shop.

General locates the on/off switch right above the motor grip so you can control the power with your thumb. It's a sensible spot that allows you to keep both hands where they belong — on the workpiece and motor grip.
