Dewalt Miter Saw Focuses On Accuracy
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?
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 dewalt toolss on eBay. These items are guaranteed to arrive in like-new condition, including accessories, instructions manuals, and packaging.
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.
If you’re familiar with your power tools, there’s a certain brand you may be aware of – the black and yellow of DeWalt. Whether you choose the DWX723, DWX724, DWX726, or even one of the other – less popular – models will depend on a couple of things. Mainly, it will depend on the weight capacity you need for your work, as well as the length of the boards that you plan to work with.
With the sliding mitre saws, you’ll be able to cut through thicker material because the neck of the saw and the blade will be able to slide back and forth. With these types of saws, you’ll be able to cut through material that’s wider than the blade’s width without having to flip the material over to complete the cut. We recommend finding a miter saw with over 3,500 RPMs because this will provide an optimal cutting experience.
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.
Flexible power options – corded or cordless – this saw can run off battery power and AC corded power. Last year when DEWALT revealed their new FLEXVOLT™ line of cordless tools we were excited and a bit skeptical about how well this new 12″ full size miter saw would perform on the job. We’ve spent the last 6 months evaluating this new miter saw with two different crews building a new house and also on remodeling jobs. This long evaluation process has been a long wait for our readers, but we feel like we’ve been able to fully vet this amazing new saw. Dewalt has useful features, which makes it easy to use.

If he was really worried about it he could have used a quickgrip and clamped the piece to the table. The saw comes with plenty of power generated by its 15amp motor and the fence adjustment is easy. Has a miter capacity of Zero to 50 Degrees going left to right.
A sliding compound miter saw is one type of the miter saw family, as it specializes in the ability to move the saw back and forth with a larger capacity to cut materials in.
