5 years later… these tips were very helpful. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.
Another reason to wait for your blade to stop, is that most miter saws have an electric brake built into the switch. When the brake is activated it causes the blade to suddenly slow down dramatically, which actually flexes the blade, up to a 16th of an inch in some cases (depending on the blade.) High speed footage shows how much wobble a blade can sustain when the brake is activated. So if you’re letting go of the switch and immediately lifting up the blade, that flex can nick the material or cause a blowout.
Ha… this video was too helpful and actually explained to me why I see people let the blade stop before lifting. Never knew why i’d just follow the same procedure knowing there was a good reason for it…. Woodworking newbie.

I never expected to make so many tools for my tools when I got into woodworking.
Personally, I enjoy making the tools a lot more than using the tools to make other things.
You got that right!
That shave technique with the upstroke was a beauty. Thanks for that one 👍
Learned something new today with the blade down and cutting up. Thanks!
Raising the blade in order to barely graze the piece using the carbide tips is one of those “Classic Knecht” tips that makes me smile and shake my head in awe. Always appreciate your videos Colin
It's amazing that such a small angle cut on the corner of the stop block can make such a difference !
I've been woodworking for years though I'm not an expert my any stretch of the imagination. There was literally NOTHING in this video I knew of previously. Thank you so much for these tips!
That's what I love about woodworking: if you're looking, you'll never stop learning. Great vid!!
This is one of those videos that a person should bookmark and then go back to view it again just before beginning a job. Thanks for the information.
Been doing this nearly 20yrs, and I still learned some tricks here...
Great vid!
Thanks
Actually read the directions and descriptions of tools like this, can save time and fingers
Really?! I was thinking all good for the beginner
Thanks for this, Colin. I've heard the advice to cut a bevel in fences before, but I had never seen anyone provide a demonstration of just how significant a difference it would make. Great job!
Great tips, thank you. I've learned to be a better woodworker just making the tools and jigs.
These are great tips! I already do several, but the v-shaped block to cut dowels is new to me - thanks!
Love these tips! Especially the shaving a little from end. Awesome
Shows a lot of experience! A person from whom you have many things to learn!
Thank you, these are great tips. I only just got my first drop saw so I could do some simple home repairs and I'm teaching myself. Videos like this are very useful. I'll go over and have a look at more, I'm sure I'll learn plenty.
Thank you for sharing. Always good to learn new methods and particularly the safety aspects of it.
Wow, what an eye-opener. Thank you for taking the time to make this video Colin. I have been using Mitre saws for years and I now feel that I have been making amateur mistakes all along. Thanks for the tips - I am going to try to learn by your experience....Off to cut a notch in my stop-block now!
Going to be EXTREMELY Useful cutting rafters and studs for my new workshop/shed!
Thanks again Colin for these tips. Some of them after you do them it’s like “why didn’t I think of that”. I appreciate you making these videos to help us learn an easier, better or right way of doing things.
We ALWAYS find your work to be indispensable and real treasure for any woodworking place.
The last one was great!
I'll be making one of those!
Thanks for sharing!
Nice! At least three things I hadn't seen before or thought of... I really liked the clamp on a mitre saw sled idea.
my absolute favorite wood working channel! Love the plain down to earth language. I've picked up a lot of great ideas from you!
Well, I just got my miter saw and these tips are going to be very helpful. Thanks
Just bought a saw, thanks for the great advice Colin .
3:23 is so helpful. I've done woodworking many years and never figured that one out.
Many years? 2 years ain't many years
I always learn something from your videos and you have such a pleasant presentation style. Thank you for making these videos. I know it takes a lot of time to edit etc.
Being a newbie when I have a question I look for your videos.
Always to the point. Thank you
Us usual Colin you have great tips and tricks to make my woodworking experience better. I always look forward to watching your videos. Very informative every time.
You explain and demonstrate things REALLY clearly!! Plus it's good stuff!!
Thanks :)
I have watched this clip many times for all the good tips. Wood is my medium !
Thanks for sharing Colin! Fun to watch and learn.
Another excellent video! That second tip about shaving the length down just a hair is absolutely genius!
Thank You!
Very useful tips again, Colin. Thanks for sharing.
Because of the fact that a mitre saw is shattering sawdust everywhere I always have a small (round 2 cm) paint brush nearby to clean up the work surface.
Saw dust causes that the wood is not touching the wood evenly on the ground and/or back plate and when sawing in spite of that you do not get good cuts.
Hans de Groot a great
Thanks for the tip Hans
I have a dust collection system connected to my saw.
I do not have, yet.
But how effective is your dust collection?
Especially at mitre saws it's quite a problem.
Do you have a video on that?
Hans de Groot I dont post videos. It works quite well for me.
good to see a basic breakdown, cheers Colin.
Thanks Colin. You are becoming the tool tipster. Great tips as always.
You are a great teacher, thanks for your videos, just learned something new, letting the blade stop after doing a cut, I really didn't think that it could be dangerous.
Really thanks. 👍🤝
Extremely clear and informative, as always. Thanks!
Just got my miter saw, great video to watch. Thanks!
Thanks for your video. Some tips were reminders for me that originally came from the master carpenter that I learned from,and some were new. But it was your personality that has gained you another subscriber today. Thanks again
Super helpful! I’m self taught so I appreciate videos like this. Thank you.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Love that shaving trick. Helped out quite a bit for tight baseboards
I enjoyed this video so much carpentry has become my passion when I quit my office job, I envy the lnowledge and skills you have I'll definately be watching your channel for some more good stuff
Thanks for the tips. Sometimes we are so focus to get things done quickly and overlooked some of the technique and detail results. Keep up with your helpful video.
So glad to have discovered you and your videos. Enjoyable and really informative. Many thanks!
Once again pure genius. I really should be taking notes during your videos. So many useful tips I struggle to remember them all.
New to woodworking wish I knew about the dowel trick yesterday, thank you.
Learned a couple of things I didn't know. Thanks!
Cracking video mate, thank you very much, just got my first mitre today you’re videos have been awesome so thank you for all you do 👍👍👍
great tip on the corner cut out on the stop block. never thought of that to prevent dust build up
Love that sled with the hold down clamp 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for yet another great set of tips I put right to work in my shop!!!
I always say I learn something, but I ALWAYS do...Thanks Colin...rr
Outstanding tips thanks. Love the butt up against the blade to let the carbide graze the wood ever so slightly. Thanks!
Butt the wood, lift the blade carefully, start the saw and then do the cut. You'll have less burning/tearout. You'll also get cuts that are more square, especially on hardwood. You don't want to be cutting with the back/side of your blade's teeth.
Tip #2 was a new one I’d never heard of before. Thank you!
Thanks mate. I've just bought a mitre
Saw to cut my kindling. Very informative for mugs like me.
Hope it helps! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Colin :) More handy tips.

OFF the HOOK Colin , I LOVE to Learn !!
Thanks you Colin for more great tips! 👍
That was very helpful advice and tips! Thanks!
I usually just have a can of compressed air or my air compressor running so I can blow away any excess saw dust-- great ideas! Love the hold down clamp and cutting sled tip! Thank you!
I hope your lungs are ok.
Lots of good there just in time for my new miter saw. Thanks.

Excellent tips. Some are so basic i wonder how i didn't think of it. Thanks for sharing.
Always good info, Colin. Thank you.
Great tips! As always with your vids a bunch of things I can use! I did know about the v shape for holding dowels, but you explained it really well, so I understand it better than before.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! I wish I could have seen this one yesterday, it would have been immediately applicable!
you're welcome!
You are the best! I want to be just like you when I grow up.
Those tips Are great man,thank you,good editing on vid too.peace.
Terrific Tips as always Colin. Keep em coming............
Thanks, yes I learned some good tips! Thank you 🙏🏼😀
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
I appreciate your tips! Thank you! 😊
Nice video, great tips especially for newer folks like me. Thanks!!
Awesome Tips! Thanks so much.
Great ideas thank you for posting Colin .
Good info Colin! By god someone trained you well! Thanks for sharing
Love this video! The cut in the stop is so simple yet something I've never done before. Time to remedy that :) Thanks
If you are not cutting thin pieces an even better way is to put a thin piece of wood under the stop prior to clamping, then remove it before cutting. Any sawdust just gets pushed under the stop.
Excellent advice. Thank you
