I've researched the DWS780 Double Bevel SCMS and am VERY interested in this model. However, a lot of early reviews stated the slide was very course and rough. I was at HD yesterday, tried the floor model and yes it was un-smooth and very gritty. Last night I read a review where someone liked the slide and specifically mentioned they had the Type 20 model. Is the Type 20 an upgraded version or something completely different? If its a modified version was the slide mechanism improved over the Type 1? Also (if this is a revised build) is there any documentation on what is different on the Type 20 version? When I go back to HD, I'll look to see which Type the floor model is. When I get time, I'll also download both breakdowns to see if part numbers are the same or different for the various slide components. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
