Showerthought: I used to cut all my miters by hand but after a job in Denver with 300 feet of crown, I bought a miter saw and never looked back.
What's the one tool or method you switched to that you now can't live without, and what finally made you change?

Quieter and no dust" is the REAL selling point. I dragged my miter saw up three flights of stairs for a tiny bathroom job and felt like a total clown. A sharp hand saw just feels right for small stuff now.

Ever haul a miter saw somewhere and instantly regret it? Felt that way last weekend, total overkill for a couple cuts.

Honestly, I went the other way. I got sick of lugging a miter saw around for small trim jobs. A good hand saw and a miter box is quieter, creates no dust, and honestly just feels more precise to me now. The change came after one too times of setting up power just to cut two pieces.
