Reviews:
With easy portability and adjustment features built for speed, Delta's
Sidekick 10-inch sliding compound miter saw makes a great cutting
partner. Weighing in at only 56 pounds, the Sidekick is definitely
designed for the job site, rather than the woodshop. Unlike other
saws in its class, the Sidekick's entire base pivots--a distinctive
feature that surely helped Delta build such a lightweight saw. The
entire stand and saw also conveniently fold together for one-person
carrying; it's pretty slick. The saw's dual horizontal rods are
located underneath the base, too, which certainly protects the saw's
slide and also seems to give the saw a lower, more stable center
of balance. The ergonomic D-shaped handle is comfortable for either
left- or right-handed use. The cam-action miter lock--always a good
idea with miter saws--is definitely quicker and easier to use than
the old traditional screw locks. This saw only bevels to the left,
however, and setting the miter gauge requires more effort than we'd
like. The scale is set from behind the fence, which means you have
to lean over the saw a bit to set your angle. It isn't a hassle,
exactly, but it might be more effort than finish carpenters--who
have to dial in exact angles all day long--would like. However,
anyone would appreciate the stock stops, which extend up to 59 inches
down the stand. As is standard, Delta's Sidekick has positive stops
set at 0, 22-1/2, 31.62, and 45 degrees. Spinning a 10-inch blade
at 5,000 rpm, the Sidekick cuts widths to 11-1/2 inches at 90 degrees
and 8 inches at 45 degrees. It's a good, solid saw, all in all,
especially for contractors who want big cutting capacity and who
are tired of lugging heavy compound miter saws and stands around.
