Abstract
A miter saw includes a base, a rotatable table, a saw arm, a driver, a saw blade, and two supporters. The rotatable table is pivotally mounted to the base and is rotatable relative to the base. The rotatable table includes a support surface configured to receive a workpiece thereon. The saw arm is coupled to the rotatable table and is pivotable downwards towards the support surface. The driver is mounted on the saw arm. The saw blade is mounted on the saw arm and is driven by the driver to cut the workpiece. The two supporters are respectively pivotally mounted to the rotatable table and are configured to support the workpiece thereon while in a supporting position, and to be pivoted to an unobtrusive stowed position when not in use.

A miter saw having a saw blade carried by a saw arm, comprising:
- a base;
- a rotatable table having a support surface configured to support a workpiece, said table pivotally mounted to and rotatable relative to said base;
- said saw arm pivotally mounted to said rotatable table and rotatable downwards towards said support surface;
- and
- two supporters respectively pivotally mounted directly to said rotatable table so as to be pivotable relative to said rotatable table and rotatable along with said rotatable table;
- wherein the two supporters are pivotable between an unobtrusive stowed position when not in use and a supporting position when in use to support a workpiece thereon.
A miter saw having a saw blade carried by a saw arm, comprising:
- a base;
- a rotatable table having a main body and a top support surface configured to support a workpiece, said table pivotally mounted to and rotatable relative to said base;
- an extended arm extending from said main body, and a slot extending through said main body and through said extended arm;
- said saw arm having a support arm coupled to said rotatable table, a sliding arm slidably coupled to said support arm, and a pivot arm pivotally mounted to said sliding arm and rotatable downwards towards said top support surface;
- said saw blade mounted to said pivot arm and being selectively inserted into said slot and configured to slide relative to said top support surface, wherein a sliding distance of said saw blade corresponds to a length of said slot;
- and
- two supporters respectively pivotally mounted directly to two opposed outer sides of said extended arm so as to be pivotable relative to said rotatable table and rotatable along with said rotatable table;
- wherein the two supporters are pivotable between an unobtrusive stowed position when not in use and a supporting position when in use to support a workpiece thereon.
