You might not expect a tool made of plastic to outperform a higher end tool made of metal. That is just what this cheap miter box has been doing. I have achieved cleaner and more precise cuts with this simple tool than I have using my chop saw or another one that I recently used at a workshop. Mind you the cuts aren't perfect in a fine wood working sense but they suit my needs. It has come in handy to use in my makeshift balcony studio since there isn't a lot of room for power tools.
