The ultimate shop would have (in order) a 10" compound miter saw, a 12" sliding compound miter, and a smaller one with like 60 teeth on an 7-8" blade for the dinky stuff. A zero clearance table insert is a must for the small saw.

Is there ever a time on a miter or table saw where a zero clearance insert isn't a good thing?
