As part of the essential wood working tools for professionals, the DWS780 is ideal for cabinet makers, trim carpenters, framers, installers, and contractors seeking accuracy, capacity, portability, and ease-of-use. Its XPS LED light and cut alignment system cast a laser-like shadow on the work surface, showing exactly where the blade will contact the material. This system remains accurate over time and does not require recalibration when changing blades, outperforming traditional laser guides. The saw’s dual bevel system allows beveling right and left from 0 to 49 degrees with positive stops, and a high-visibility bevel scale. It miters 60 degrees right and 50 degrees left, with an adjustable stainless steel miter detent plate featuring 10 positive stops for fast adjustments. The cam lock miter button lets users lock angles between detents for jobsite versatility. This electric saw for wood cutting is powered by a robust 15 amp motor delivering 3,800 rpm. The power cord is routed through the rail in the back to prevent interference with the slide. The saw offers industry-leading cut capacities, including 6-3/4 inch vertical, 7-1/2 inch nested crown, and 13-7/8 inch horizontal, plus an exclusive back fence design that cuts up to a 2 by 16 at 90 degrees and a 2 by 12 at 45 degrees. A rail lock latch simplifies vertical cutting capacity by holding the head away from the fence. Take on tough miter saw applications with this 12-inch model, part of the trusted DEWALT line of wood saws.

Review: Great tool - I didn't know what I was missing before I bought a 12" miter saw. The Dewalt 780 is well made and very accurate but also quick to change from cut to cut. My saw needed some tweaking on the pre-set stops but that was an easy thing to do. After that it was ready to go. The fit and finish of everything was good. The slides are a little rough at first but seem to wear in over a little bit of time. That was a concern at first and other reviews mention it as well but it doesn't seem to be a problem now. The sawdust bag works okay but has very limited capacity. The shadow light also works very well. Mine is slightly off (maybe .005) but after using it for a while it's easy to compensate. It's a great feature. I haven't looked at the manual to see it that's adjustable but it's only off by something like the width of a sharp pencil line and once you've adjusted yourself to that you can split a pencil line. The motor torque is surprisingly strong at start up. A soft start would have been better but, again, it's a very minor issue on a great saw. Purists and professionals may not love this as much as me but it's fast, easy and accurate for my needs. My radial arm saw hasn't even been turned on since I got this 780. I also bought the Dewalt stand. It works great too. The work support adjustments require some tweaking to get perfect when there's a need to change them but it's easy enough. If you have a jamb level it's REALLY easy. The extension arms work well on long material and stay pretty level even when extended way out. I've added this mini review because it's such a good companion piece with the saw. If this was lost or stolen I'd order a new one immediately. It's just incredibly fast to work with; it's easy to change the setups and the cuts are very nice. I did buy a better blade for trim work but the stock blade works fine for less delicate pieces.
Review: Very, Very Nice Miter Saw - The Dewalt 780 was a great purchase. I got it at an excellent sale price around Black Friday so the cost was comparable to the 779 model which is essentially the same unit minus the XPS light...but the light is worth every penny. Unlike laser lines on some units which are notorious for going off kilter, the XPS light is mounted behind the blade and the shadow it casts is your cut line. Fool proof every time. Keep in mind you also may need to calibrate the blade. Mine was spot on 90 degrees to the fence from the factory but the bevel needed some tweaking which was actually a very simple bolt adjustment. Zero wobble on the blade which was also a nice surprise, and it performed great. Little tear out with the Dewalt 60 tooth blade on typical lumber yard pine, but the cuts were nice and smooth and spot on 90 degrees on both the vertical and horizontal, triple checked with a precision square. This thing went through some recently split Walnut, and some of the pieces were pretty big, it went right through them. Only thing I don't like is the screw clamp, they need to rethink that one, it just takes forever, and I definitely wish there was more of a base plate for wider things like uneven slabs I'd normally shim which can be jenky, but I can make some sort of an extension piece for that. Overall, super happy with the unit. I wish my table saw from another manufacturer was this trouble free.
