So far it’s awesome.

Initial impressions after about 30 minutes putzing around with it:
• 90* cuts are clean out of the box.
• 45* miters are only a hair off, but that might be the pine I was using.
• The shadow cut line is really nice. I like it a lot more than the typical laser as I can see it far easier.
• The lighting mechanism for the cut line also doubles as a workspace light, which is awesome. I didn’t realize how much more comfortable it is having LED lights focused on your work.
• The slide is incredibly smooth. Almost no effort needed to move it and the slide lock is easy to engage.
• The material hold down is effective but more frustrating than useful, in my opinion, but I’m generally not a fan of these anyways so take it with a grain of salt.
• The adjustable/ extendable fence is a really nice feature for longer pieces of stock.
• The cutting lock is a nice feature. It’s well placed and easy to disengage but impossible to accidentally hit. It’s a nice safety feature to give you some peace of mind.
• The 60-tooth blade that comes with it out of the box has pretty clean cuts for a manufacturers blade.

I’ll post with more thoughts as I use it more.

Also, with the 20% off deal Lowe’s has through the end of the month, at $499, it feels like it is worth the money, considering Lowe’s is selling the DWS779 model at the same price.

Nice! Let us know what you think!

Do you have a particular blade that you like to use with a miter saw?

Typically I stick to Diablo blades. I’ve always been happy with the durability and cut quality. The out-of-the-box 60-tooth DeWalt blade that came with this is great so far. Normally I like to use 80-tooth blades for really clean cuts, but I’m happy with the 60-tooth blade so far.

Does anyone else have really random lunches right now?

I made a salad with cucumber and sprouts because that was what I had in my fridge.
Also had some leftover dairy free chicken pot pie filling (we had it on top of parsnip mash last night.)
And a slice of baguette with some exorbitantly priced French butter.

I’m a senior planner leading one brand and there’s a new strategist on the team working on a sister brand. They’ve been asking for every strategy deck I’ve made on that brand as an example to go by to inform the thinking/flow on the sister brand. Also because I mentioned it went well with client when they ask. All for sharing thinking w/ the team & I know we feel imposter syndrome to varying degrees, but I also feel like it’s good for planners to find their own voice/style/flow. Thoughts?

Wanted to share some advice for anyone looking at track saws. I just bought the bare WEN 6.5” unit ($145.29) and paired it with the Powertec guide rail set ($119.89) and came away with a solid setup at a (comparatively) cheap price ($265).

I was considering the Makita ($585) or Dewalt ($790) setups since those are my normal go-to brands, but couldn’t stomach the cost.

Highly recommend it!

Recommendations for a book, website, or YouTube channel for beginner woodworking projects? I have a very good contractor table saw, orbital sander, and a few other basic tools...and would like to tackle a few projects to see if woodworking is something I really enjoy. I have three daughters ages 7, 11, and 13 so projects that could become gifts would be an added bonus.

PSA: Jet and Powermatic are having supply chain issues. Ordered a jet dust collector in March with an April delivery date. Woodcraft has pushed it back every month and their current best estimate is July 7th (though they are still advertising a June ship date). Just keep that in mind if you have any sense of immediacy around your purchasing needs.
