Recommend a miter saw for cutting 6" × 2" aluminum extrusion (SEG light boxes)

I'm setting up to cut 6" × 2" aluminum extrusions for SEG light-box frames (production, not just prototyping). I’m looking for miter saw recommendations and related setup tips.

Use case

Material: aluminum extrusion, 6" wide × 2" tall (fairly thin wall)

Cuts: 90° and 45° miters for frame assembly.

Most of the major brands are good....DeWalt, Bosch, Milwaukee, Makita, etc. DeWalt is widely considered as having some of the best miter saws.

Put a Diablo aluminum blade on any quality 12" miter saw and you'll be good to go.
