Why only 3 cuts? What happened to the blade? Did it go dull, or break? I'd like to try the miter saw at least for the 45 degree cuts. I have the 4 1/2" HF grinder as a backup plan.

Then put a sanding cup and disc on it and you get a truly versatile woodworking tool - known in boatyards here as the 'electric spokeshave'.
