When did Dewalt change the miter bevel handle material? Wasn't it metal? If I'm not mistaken, that looks plastic.

[@jameshill4900]

@@Edmund_Mallory_Hardgrove The 780 is still metal. 779 changed to plastic with type 21 around 2019. Then the type 22 779 dropped more features(bevel pawls, slide lock lever).

[@jameshill4900]

Just an FYI. This is a the 2nd generation type 21 779 he is showing & the newer type 22 has less features (no slide lock lever on the side and no preset bevel stops at back). Only the 780 now has those features.

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
Much love from Switzerland

[@gordonduke7174]

Thanks Kyle you are the first to explain how the tilt feature works on both sides.

[@kurtisloew108]

nice review. just ordered at lowes. great deal! and a great upgrade from my ryobi. the ryobi treated me well over 5 years

[@frederickrussell7750]

Kyle when I install baseboards I glue them down with my glue gun.....I run beads of glue along the top and bottom portions of the baseboard. And when in need of painting I just remove them from the wall with my plaster knife....remove the glue easily and paint them.....repeat....it really works. No nails or nail heads to cover.....it works.

[@kevinb6102]

Very helpful. I didn’t know my saw could do some of those things. Thanks

[@poppymonroewild]

I'm rocking the non sliding version and love it. Wish I had your stand.

[@bijan4727]

Hi. Very well elaborated. You answered all my questions. Thanks a million.

[@andrewnicholson890]

The stop feature would be very useful in my field I fabricated aluminum so some days I have a lot of small projects with half way cuts in the material so I like that feature

[@TiamatJ]

Great video. Thanks for posting.

[@sarg4913]

Nice review Kyle. Thanks.

[@tomdi5557]

Thanks Kyle great review

[@new_england_times553]

I just purchased mine a few weeks ago and just picked up the DeWalt rolling stand. It's funny how its inches while my Zero Turn mower is 64 inches wide. lol.

[@urlyriser3334]

I have the 780 with the folding adjustable height stand and XPS lighting system. I really enjoy the XPS lighting system to line up the cuts. Used it to build a 2 story 650 square foot addition to my house. Very nice saw.

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Sweet! I like the XPS system better than any I have seen on the market. It projects on your blade, so it is always perfect! Unlike lasers which are like rifle scopes. Have to be zeroed and can fall out of line!

[@wankyland2914]

Thank you for your review

[@joephelan5427]

Thanks, Newfeeeee!

[@joephelan5427]

Appreciate it Newfeeeeee!

[@mikesfarmmikesfarm3977]

Does the current 779 version have blade depth stop that allows dado cuts

[@johngeisiii8090]

Got this same saw and stand special at Lowe’s just recently. Great quick overview. Agree the saw is very well engineered . Only thing I didn’t understand is why they didn’t include the ideal screws to attach the base for the stand ( the front two) Most install with the treads pointing up in the front like shown in this video. The screws stick up far enough to interfere with the pivot table if swung to the fullest.

[@yohanathandowns9057]

Some saws have deeper mounts than others they probably wanted to make sure they had it all covered. I had to trim mine down too

[@jacobkomnath7961]

took me 3 years to realize a little bump stop thing. Alot of half laps are in my future

[@lyndaprogler9937]

maybe someone can help. People talk about cutting dado or lap joints. When I slide mine front to back, the depth isn't constant (the slide bars aren't perfectly parallel to the table). And I can't find any way to adjust it.

[@tonytopps91423]

Sold Review!

[@zhongmingkuang5699]

Excuse me, does the dewalt 779 not have a light switch? How does the dark corner work? Thank you!

[@DWMK]

I thought the DWS779 didn’t have the chop saw lock on the left of the saw? What Type 779 is this?

[@MilosNenadovic-sf7om]

Please help if you know?does the DWS778 model have the cutting depth adjustment as you have shown on your model..if I want to cut a 10cm beam by 5cm,does ithave an adjustment for that depth so that i can cut the beam in half from several cuts..I give an example..just let me know if there us any depth setting if you know..thanks in advance

[@Meme-zc4cw]

What are the dimensions of the base?

[@jmercer74]

Keep us posted if you buy the lighting system

[@ricardovarajr]

I have the same saw, but only difference is mine didn’t come with the stops for the bevel. I guess they changed that on the type 2 .

[@jcboom]

I also didn’t get those graduates stops. Is this how they come now?

[@ChristopherClaudioSkierka]

would you say the blade is exactly at 90 degrees to the surface and if not is it possible to adjust it? Thanks in advance

[@armyfazer1410]

It is possible to make any needed corrections using the bevel adjustment.

[@wrecksricardus4911]

Hey!!!! I'm looking for a custom made coffin. Could you help a guy out? MORE IMPORTANTLY, great intro and closing music.

[@kyle_noseworthy]

How soon are you looking to use it? I have some scrap-wood in the shed!

[@wrecksricardus4911]

Probably not until my next visit. I've often thought being buried in a graveyard over looking the ocean would be pleasant. And that old horse, it's to die for.

[@pstoneking3418]

If you purchase thee xps laser upgrade you void your warranty. So be sure to return your saw to original prior to taking it in for Warranty repairs.

[@salhotra28]

Thanks for letting us know…

[@saral161]

🙏🙏

[@paullasmith4975]

will it cut a 6 x 6 in one pass?

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Yes!

[@TheRealGOTdurrrred]

Will it cut a 6x6 in one pass at 45 degrees though?

[@mr.h4714]

Shame on DeWalt for removing features from this model when they came out with the 780 xps

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Did they really?!

[@kentduggan8626]

Really it's best to invest in a non sliding saw also for most jobs because these are portable but a pain to haul around for most jobs
