Any professional who wants to do the best work needs the best tools to do it. For the finish carpenter who wants his work to stand above the competition, the Makita LS1216L sliding compound miter saw just might be the best choice for a job site saw.
The LS1216L is one of Makita's impressive new generation of sliding compound miter saws. It comes with a long list of state-of-the-art features for ease of use, versatility, increased cutting capacity and power.
Makita Reciprocating Saw
Start with the capacity: With its retractable rear guard and the triple gear drive system that puts motor housing higher than on most other miter saws, the Makita LS1216L Sliding Compound Miter Saw will handle 8" crown molding and up to 6-1/2" baseboard, nested vertically.
It has 5-1/2" tall adjustable sliding fences for not only supporting tall stock, but also for more precise miter and bevel cuts. The upper portion of the fences slide outward to give you clearance for bevel cuts, while the lower portion slides inward to stabilize and support the material better.
The four rail slide system gives you rigidity and accuracy in your cuts all the way out to 15" at 90° and 10-1/2" at 45°. These round rails ride on six ball bearings for smooth, solid and accurate sliding action.
The vertical vise/clamp is double-jointed to give you more reach (and versatility) when clamping your material. And the vise can be mounted on either side.
The list of features making this saw easy to use in equally impressive. First of all, you can miter 0º to 52º left and 0º to 60º right with positive stops at 0º, 15º, 22.5º, 31.6º and 45º, both left and right. And the miter lock is an easy "one-touch" for quick, easy and accurate adjustments.
The LS1216L can perform bevel cuts anywhere from 0º to 45º, both left and right, with positive stops at 0º, 22.5º, 33.9º and 45º in either direction. The dual handle bevel lock is easily accessible with front AND top facing scales for increased precision in adjustments.
The laser guide is also well thought out, with its own switch so you can turn it on and set up your cut without the blade turning. And it has micro-adjustments for precise settings, right or left of blade cutting.
The replaceable stainless steel miter scale is easy to read and the blade guard is clear for better visibility. And the large, easy to grip, ergonomically designed horizontal D-handle is rubberized for more comfort and has an extra-large trigger switch.
Then there's the power: A 15 amp electronically controlled motor that won't bog down and will maintain constant speed under load.
For a big saw, the 12" Makita LS1216L is surprisingly compact, thanks in part to the staged slide mechanism; the two pairs of support rails add up to give you the full slide to cut that 15" crosscut. And at 52 pounds, it's truly portable.
In the area of versatility, the LS1216L doesn't fall short, either. This sliding compound miter saw, unlike some of the high quality saws on the market, will take any 12" blade with a standard 1" bore. Which means you can use it to cut almost any material, from the softest woods to plastics to non-ferrous metals, just by changing the blade.

Since Milwaukee came up with the recip saw in the first place, we have very high expectations for every model they put out – and this one does Milwaukee proud.At the heart of this saw is a rip-roaring 13 amp motor that does not hesitate no matter what you’re cutting, whether it’s studs or large diameter pipe. Despite the awesome power, it handles beautifully, with so little vibration it’s remarkable, and the weight of the tool is balanced perfectly for minimal user fatigue. And in the interest of ergonomics, probably the best innovation on this saw is the handle. It rotates a full 360-degrees and locks in at 45-degree intervals, so you can adjust the angle to whatever odd situation you might find yourself in, and it saves tremendous strain on your body.
The speed control dial lets you set a range, and the trigger pressure gives you variable speeds within that range for absolute control. At full speed, you’ve got 3,000-strokes per minute with a 1-1/4-inch stroke length, and you can choose between orbital action, which gives you fast, aggressive cuts, or straight blade movement, which delivers a surprisingly fine cut.
We like Milwaukee’s Quik-Lok™ blade clamp for fast, easy blade changes. And we love the flexibility of installing the blades with the teeth facing up or down, making your job even easier. Just twist the collar and insert the blade all the way in; release the collar and a spring-loaded mechanism locks the blade in place.
And talk about flexibility: Even the shoe adjusts, and without a tool. You can move it effortlessly both forward and backward into six positions, letting you use untouched parts of the blade for longer blade life, and it’s great, too, in awkward positions.
