I’ve got that one it’s crap! Stops as soon as you put it near the trim, no power at all

Well that saves me a few quid. Cheers.

It must be a case of you get what you pay for. The proxxon 80kg it is.

These kind of things are at the lower cost end and may offer some more alternatives but the blade is where it will get interesting. I have different blades for different speed machines and materials and use an abrasive disc for tile trim but Saxton would be my go to for a blade and the advise. I bought some multitool cutters for floor board screws (A smallest battery grinder, recip saw too big ) from them recently that Dewalt told me cant be done. 210mm Blades - https://www.saxtonblades.co.uk/tct-circular-saw-blades/165mm-216mm-blades/210mm-blades

I noticed 'Evolution Power Tools' sell a tile disc for there machine (https://www.toolstop.co.uk/index.ph...ZMZ58Fswb1FuvKLLJnvuqJzVv6Z7r2bsaAjuNEALw_wcB'

Well I went with @Adey1980 advice and purchased the evolution mitre saw today from screwfix. I decided that it would be more versatile than the proxxon and will let you know how I get on with the tile trims. Thanks for the input

Sits on Keter work station with plenty of room

They quote Tool Dimensions (H x W x L) (0° / 0°) (Note: Dimensions taken with saw head down.) 260 x 393 x 381mm

There is an R210CMS and an F210CMS (Orange and green) - Green is there colour for DIY orange for so called pro. The Fury 3B is a double bevel machine versus the single bevel for those that may want that feature (3 year warranty on oranges)

Cheers, to be honest when i say work station its a sheet of 11mm ply with 2 holes for nippers and a bigin for drilling holes. Sits on top of a light weight b&d stand. Lol, so i guess i could invest in a bigger sheet of ply.
