Can anyone give a recommendation on what would be the best miter box to purchase? I see so many some worth $25.00 and Other $100.00 -What is the big difference?
Any imput would be appreciated.

There's a constant source of clean water for you to use, and all you have to do is collect it.

Depends on if you are going to use this professionally or maybe once in a blue moon.
A 100.00 gets you almost a decent hand (not motorized) mitrebox.
I personally would get only a compound mitresaw. I do this everyday, and like the versatility a compound gives me in one package. I have a Hitachi 8'' and would like a 10 or maybe a 12 for what it can do. However, for daily use-the 8-1/4 is the ticket.
One that cuts well and holds a setting/square is worth it. One that loses settings/square, you might as well guess with a circular saw.
Best of luck.
