Display packaging packages an item to form a packaged item. The display packaging includes a front portion and a rear portion. The front and rear portions have apertures. The item has a through hole. The apertures in the front and rear portions and the item receive a display peg. When the item is held at least partially between the front portion and the rear portion, and when the display peg is received by the rear portion aperture, the through hole of the item, and the front portion aperture, the packaged item is rotatable to a plurality of non-resting orientations and only one resting orientation. When the packaged item is in any of the non-resting orientations, the packaged item automatically rotates to the resting orientation. The display packaging has displayed information. The displayed information is in a pre-determined orientation when the packaged item is in the resting orientation.

A dustless compound sliding miter saw with a built-in dust collection system is disclosed. The dustless compound sliding miter saw uses an extraction turbine to create a vacuum region at the end of the blade exist from the cut wood piecework, the blade housing has an external extraction channel and an external suction tube to maximize the dust collection. A retractable dust guard is utilized to confine the sawdust in the vacuum region to further maximize the dust collection. The compound sliding miter saw also utilizes anti-dust blade guard and air flow guide fins to optimize the airflow and the dust extraction. The compound sliding miter saw has a rail system that slides the blade from front to back and extends the maximum cutting length. The compound sliding miter saw has a built-in beveling mechanism to tile the blade and cut down through the wood at an angle.

A miter saw includes a base assembly and a saw unit pivotably coupled to the base assembly. The saw unit includes a saw blade and an upper blade guard covering an upper portion of the saw blade. The miter saw also includes a cut line indicator coupled to the upper blade guard. The cut line indicator includes a light source, a cover positioned between the saw blade and the light source, a housing in which the light source is positioned, a rib coupled to one of the cover or the housing, and a first slot defined in the other of the cover or the housing. The cover includes a second slot through which light from the light source passes to illuminate opposite sides of the saw blade and a work piece supported upon the base assembly, thereby casting a shadow of the saw blade onto the work piece. The rib is receivable within the first slot to align the second slot with the saw blade.

A benchtop cutting machine (1), such as a miter saw, includes: a base (2); a turntable (3), which is rotatable relative to the base; and a lock mechanism (40), which locks the rotation of the turntable relative to the base. The lock mechanism comprises a locking pin (45), which is movable along its axial direction and locks the rotation of the turntable by engaging with the base, and a manipulatable lever (41), which is pivotable in an up-down direction to release the engagement of the locking pin from the base. The manipulatable lever has a pivot point or center of rotation (42) that is located upward of the locking pin.
