I like to use a 12 inch dewalt miter saw. But really it depends on what you will be trimming to figure out exactly what size you will need. Mike
In mitering the pieces that form the angles of an octagon, the miter saw should be set at 22-1/2 degrees.
The sliding compound mitre saw slides up to or around 12 inches wide. the other doesn't slide and can only go straight up and down and only cut about 7 inches wide
You place to object you are about to cut inside the miter box, hold it against either the front or back of the box. place the saw in theGroves that line up directly across the box and start sawing.

Depending on how comfortable you are using a table saw, you can do it free hand or with the miter gauge. Use a 6 inch piece of 2x6 and run it through at an angle. Usually about 1/4 inch thick on the thick end.
The Bosch Miter Saw is available in two sizes. It is available in a 10 inch size or a 12 inch size. Saw stands are also available for this type of saw.
A compound miter saw can cut two angles at the same time. Very useful when cutting crown molding.

The most popular saw is a 12 inch compound miter saw like the Makita LS1221 (about $350 or so). If the molding is not terribly large, a 10 inch dual sliding compound miter saw will do the job well (example Makita LS1016L, about $550 - 600). The dual sliding saws are really designed for cutting crown molding.
The motorised Mitre saw can cut materials at very exact angles.
A mitre saw can cut wood at any angle you wish in both directions.
Rip, cross, dado & "sink".Table saw cuts include rip cuts, crosscuts, miter box cuts and bevel cuts.A rip cut is a cut made parallel to the wood grain.A crosscut is generally at a fixed 90 degree angle.A miter cut involves a table saw with a miter gauge. A table saw with a miter gauge has one or two slots or grooves running from the front to the back of the table. These slots or grooves are used to position and guide the miter gauge or crosscut fence to set the miter cut at a precise angle. With this cut, the material being cut is angled versus the blade.Bevels are cut by changing the angle of the blade with respect to the surface of the wood on the table.
You set the bevel on your saw to a 45 degree angle. Then set the angle on your saw base to the angle of your plumb cut.
