Is this old miter saw still fine for baseboards, casings, etc.?
I have this old Ryobi miter saw and it has worked fine over the years to make quick cuts of 2x4's, etc. I also installed a whole LVP floor with it, having to flip the piece over to cut it from both sides since the blade is not big enough. I have installed a few pieces of baseboards and casing over the years too, typically having to stand the piece upright to make the 45. I am about to redo the baseboards and casings in the whole house and just wondering if this saw is still decent, or if another type of saw will make things much easier or better. While I am not woodworking that often, I do have a lot of tools but not like a permanent shop setup. I do have a table saw as well so am able to rip boards for jambs, etc.
