DEWALT Miter Saw, 12 Inch, 15 Amp, 3,800 RPM, Double Bevel Capacity, With Sliding Compound, Corded (DWS780) w/ $75 Coupon = $424

The DEWALT DWS780 12-inch sliding compound miter saw, has been designed to be precise and accurate enough for fine woodworking, yet durable enough for framing and deck building. The DWS780 is ideal for a variety of end users, including cabinet makers, trim carpenters, framers, installers, and many other professional contractors who require a product that delivers the accuracy, capacity, durability, portability, and ease-of-use that this saw offers. For visibility and accuracy when cutting, this saw features the XPS LED light and cut alignment system that casts a laser-like shadow on the work surface, showing users where the blade will come in contact with the material. Since it does not require recalibration over time or when changing blades, this alignment system can be more accurate and durable than traditional laser guides. The saw's dual bevel system includes the ability to bevel right and left from 0 to 49 degrees with positive stops at 0, 22.5, 33.9, 45, and 49 degrees in both directions, as well as a high visibility bevel scale. The saw also miters 60 degrees to the right and 50 degrees to the left and features an adjustable stainless steel miter detent plate with 10 positive stops, allowing for fast and easy adjustments. A cam lock miter button allows users to lock angles between detents for versatility on the jobsite. The saw features a powerful 15 amp motor that delivers 3,800 rpm. For convenience, the power cord is routed through the rail in the back, eliminating interference with the slide. Additionally, the saw offers an industry-leading combination of cut capacities, which includes 6-3/4 inch vertical capacity, 7-1/2 inch nested crown capacity, 13-7/8 inch horizontal capacity, and exclusive back fence design that cuts up to a 2 by 16 at a 90 degree angle and 2 by 12 at a 45 degree angle. To simplify and maximize vertical cutting capacity, the unit includes a rail lock latch for holding the head away from the fence.

I'm a trim carpenter. This is the Cadillac of miter saws right here. Love mine.
Shadow line never needs to be adjusted (unlike a laser line). That's the brilliant part about it.
Nov 9th 2021, I paid 629.00 for this saw.. its cheaper now, by far. $425 is a steal.

I feel like the price difference between the 779 and this is a bit much, but this is a great deal for this saw. I think they've once again made the 779 harder to add the cut line back onto as well. I have an older 779 and added the cutline for about 5$ in parts and an hour or so of my time. Keep in mind this needs a lot of clearance behind it, also I strongly recommend the Rigid MSUV rolling stand that usually goes on sale for 99 bucks from the outlet around the holidays etc.

Great price for this saw. Owned one years ago but hated how much space it took due to the rails extending so far back behind the saw. Moved over to the Bosch 12" Glide and never looked back.

Obviously you have it sitting in a shop at 65lbs that's ridiculous to be moving daily. The Dewalt is the only one that has 22.5 bevel stops it makes cutting bullnose corners for your baseboard go so quick. The only down side is they haven't switched to forward facing rail guides like Festool and Makita then you wouldn't need the Glide

Will the table saw stand work with this? Just bought the table saw + stand DeWalt deal. Otherwise might sell the table saw stand and buy one for this.

Do you mind sharing how or what you used to add the cut line to the 779? Thanks

My initial thought is that it should fit given it's on Dewalt platform but it's not recommended. I haven't looked into the specs but I didn't realize the table saw is heavier than the miter saw and also consideration on how the load is shifted.

Can you put a Dewalt table saw on a miter saw stand?
You can put a table saw on a miter saw stand, but it is not recommended. The table saw is too heavy and the stand is not designed to support that much weight. Additionally, the stand could tip over if the table saw is not properly secured.

Can you put a table saw on a miter saw stand? - Quora

Can you use a miter saw stand for table saw?
I wouldn't ever use a miter saw stand with a table saw. These stands are meant for supporting long goods left/right along the saw's center, while a table saw shifts its load forward/back and would be inclined to topple. Last thing you need is a moving saw with a moving blade. May 11, 2022 Reddit.com


Wait for the BF sale and I usually see the Dewalt miter saw with free rolling stand.
