Dewalt Dw718 12”
Exclusive Back Fence Design cuts up to 2×16 dimensional lumber at 90° and 2×12 at 45°. Miters 60° to the left and 50° to the right provides increased capacity. Dual horizontal steel rails with innovative clamping mechanism and linear ball bearings deliver an accurate, durable and compact saw. Cam lock miter handle with detent override deliver quick and accurate miter angles. Compact, lightweight design (53 lbs.) allows for easy transport and storage. Designed for use with the DW7187 DEWALT® adjustable miter saw laser system which enhances visibility of the cutting path.
Our inserts are also easily replaceable, so if you have multiple saw blades for your miter saw each of them will benefit from a zero-clearance throat opening. The built-in dust collection system collects more than 75 percent of dust generated in the included bag, according to DeWalt. DeWalt’s new 12” sliding compound miter saw, model DWS780, is loaded with features designed for improved accuracy, durability and portability, according to the company. This Kerf plate is a genuine DeWalt replacement part. It is made of plastic with a slot in the middle for the saw blade to slide through.
For cuts that are an odd angle, the miter lock is also very effective and easy to employ. Beveling requires you to endure standard reach around for locking or unlocking. I had very little trouble dialing in the bevel angles that I wanted. It was nice to see that the DeWalt 20V miter saw is just as accurate as any of the other miter saws we have in the shop. Power tools can be expensive, but you may be able to save by shopping Certified Refurbished s on eBay. These items are guaranteed to arrive in like-new condition, including accessories, instructions manuals, and packaging.
Tries to buy it from DeWalt and it has been discontinued. He never searched for said clamp on the net and it appears as though it may be available. On top of that I’m sure there are generic clamps that will accomplish what he wants. So because by the time he got around to buying an important safety feature 5 years after the fact and it is no longer available from DeWalt he will no longer buy DeWalt Tools. I’m sure DeWalt is glad who’d want “tool” like that buying and using your tools. The saw has a set of great features like the wide miter capacity and the innovative clamping system.
Bevel cuts are also something that this miter saw can help you do with accuracy. You can easily adjust the bevel cuts between 0 and 48 degrees to the left and to the right. Also, setting the bevel angles is also easy, as the bevel stops at 0, 33.9, 45 and 48 degrees on both sides. When we did our compact miter saw shootout, we also took the opportunity to start diving deeper into a tool class that’s beginning to gain momentum—cordless miter saws. The DeWalt 20V Max miter saw presents a lightweight solution for trim carpenters that stays on a popular battery platform. So has DeWalt looked at the competition and brought an even better product to market?
Burbro provides readers with informational content about a wide array of topics, ranging from product reviews to how-to articles. The saw’s design is another feature that’s often overlooked by many. As you’re choosing a saw, you’ll want to consider the saw’s ergonomics to ensure that it’s comfortable to use. We recommend looking at the saw’s handle to make sure that it’s comfortable to use and comes with soft grips that make it easier on your hand. This way, you’ll be able to use the saw without having to wear work gloves. You’ll also want to look for a saw that comes with built-in safety features, especially if the saw will be used in a home environment or around children.
I did just that but when I tried to buy one they said that the safety material clamp was discontinued in 2007!!! Now I bought the saw about 4 or 5 years ago (I was told the saw I bought was discontinued in 2009!). Another great thing about this saw is represented by its fence. To make things better, thanks to the adjustable stainless steel miter detent plate with 11 positive stops, all the cuts that you will make will have the highest accuracy. Moreover, the saw’s miter capacity from 0 to 60 degrees to the left and from 0 to 50 degrees to the right adds a plus of versatility to it. Not only does it offer you different options but it also provides you quality power tools that make your work simpler and easier.
Whatever the reason, DeWalt has a successful product here. We hope DeWalt runs with the success of this model and offers a brushless option in the next generation. I took the cut capacity to the maximum 2 x 8 on a piece of pine.
Henceforth, it is worth bringing up some people’s appraisals to demonstrate further that the Dewalt DWS779 is a miter saw worth considering for your workshop. Naturally, if you wish to use a different blade or any other widget, you can opt to customize dewalt tools this machine. Given how affordable the miter saw is, spending some spare change in better parts guarantees a smoother experience full of maximum efficiency. Nonetheless, Dewalt has made a nifty gadget to assist you in all of your woodworking needs.
