This has probably been cussed and discussed here but since I am fairly 
new to this forum, I need to ask for help/advice please......

I want to buy a mitre saw for use on home projects only. I am not a 
carpenter but have several projects in mind as part of the "restoration" 
of this 105 year old craftsman style house we bought a few years ago.

I just looked at saws at home depot and realized I have a dilema: I only 
want to spend around $200 at the most but the saws in my price range can 
only handle up to 6" boards. The base boards I need to replace in two 
rooms are around 8".

Am I screwed unless I buy a bigger saw which would pretty much be wasted 
on this "hobbiest" wood worker?

TIA
