45 mitre cuts

Does anyone still use hand mitre saws ? Are they any good at creating a really good mitre join (for skirting boards) ?

I don't want to buy a sliding compound mitre saw as they are so large and heavy - I only need to do about 10 joins but I want them all to be good.

paint on skimmed walls 2 years old

I had the walls skimmed in a room and have not touched the walls for 2 full years.

Is it necessary to still put on a "mist" coat or seal with a plaster sealer or can I now just put emulsion straight on without worrying about the plaster sucking all the water out of the paint.
