Chop Saw or Mitre Saw For Skirtings?

[tleefox]

I want to teach myself how to fit skirting boards to save a few £ on a house refurb - I'm pretty good at general DIY but would probably only ever use this saw for doing skirtings.

Does getting a mitre saw make it much easier?

Cheers guys.

So would one of these do the internal & external angles;

Ahhh the hours of fun I had doing the skirting of a room.... It's quite satisfying when it's all done though. (No corner on that pillar was 90 degree before you criticise!)





As above I used a sliding compound saw as well as a coping saw from screwfix http://www.screwfix.com/p/forge-steel-coping-saw-6...

They look good to me, obvious gaps because of the wall aside.
