Does anyone have a mitre saw I can borrow for an hour or two? I'm in Brampton. I have about 20 cuts to make. I have already messed up a couple trying to do it by hand with a mitre box but cant justify the cost of buying one. Alternately, I will bring what I need cut to you and you can do it for me.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks
 
If it's worth the drive to Hamilton......wood, aluminum or steel......

I don't care what the others say about you when you're not around. You's good people.

I've got a saw in Barrie and Pickering so about as close as Hamilton, but smells better.

He giveth, and he taketh away.
 
A. what are you cutting?
B. are you going to cut a finger off?

If your answer to A is wood and B is not on purpose, you can borrow one of mine, I'm in Milton. I'll require a security deposit of a shiny Loonie. Take it home keep it for a week.
 
I will pay you to borrow my saw. Where can I drop it off and how do you take your coffee?

I'd like to cut some plumbing pipe to make dog puzzles. PVC really dulls blades, but if I could use yours , I'd take a grande Americano with it.

Hold on, I'm open to negotiation. If I bring a platter of finger foods or bucket of fried chicken maybe I can do the cuts?

Bah. He wouldn't answer my pm's so I drove out to Brampton. Boy that place is big! Oh well, call it a learning experience.
 
I lent a guy my sliding compound mitre saw once. He was cutting hardwood flooring. Dunno what happened, but he brought it back with the guard broken. (Looked like he took a hammer to it) His excuse was that a small cut off off flew out, bounced off something and smashed it.

It ended up he bought me a new saw and a new blade...those few cuts cost him dearly.
 
Slick, that's exactly why I have A/ tools and B/ tools, I'm willing to lend just about anybody a tool from the B list, the A list are tools that don't leave my sight. Most wont break something on purpose but when you get handed back a $400 smoking hammer drill because somebody doesn't know any better, well that's not fun. B/ tools if they fry or break I'm not worried.
