Bill539 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Looking to get a new table saw. Sold my old larger delta as I didn’t have the space for it and I usually have to take my projects outside. I figured I’d go Flexvolt. Does anybody know if there are plans for a 10 inch 120v or just go ahead and get the 60v. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moore,C. Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I've read multiple times that full size 120 is due within a year. I'll look for some citing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilloncorr Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I was planning on holding out but found a great clearance deal at HD. I bought the 60 and love it. Rips oak hardwood flooring at 45 no problem, no stall, nothing. Highly recommend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill539 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Glad to hear the 60v is a beast. My luck will be that I’d get the 60v and the next day the 120v will be revealed and I’d regret it. Maybe I’ll hold out through Christmas and either see if they come out with it or catch a good deal on the 60. Thanks fellas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Framer joe Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I have a 60v for my use and two at work ,(construction)never had a problem ripping anything. I prefer smaller lighter tools, and I’m sure the new 10” will be larger,heavier but will be hybrid......power is always a problem for us...I buy batteries 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I’m with framer joe on this one; I have the 60v and it’s fantastic. Gobs of power, does everything I could ask of it. I’d like a 120v 10” but that would live at home and I’d take the 60 anywhere outside of my small home shop setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRS5565 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I also picked up a 60v on clearance at depot for 350 with a extra battery. Very nice saw as most say worth a look at your local store for a deal as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyinatree Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I also agree with the above posts. It’s a great saw and you will be hard pressed to have an issue. Will kill the smaller flex batteries kinda quickly but not enough to be an issueSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeDewalt Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Look For HomeDepot Clearance Racks i seen for 350 a lot. If you are a mobile worker who performs his work at the clients property this is the perfect Saw. I do feel like you need a 9ah to get the full expectation It really benefits from the flexvolt blades I bought a diablo and took it off because of the added kerf and strain on the Saw, since then just using flexvolt blades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 The only thing that kept me from the FV was the odd blade size, cordless didn’t matter to meSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Rumor was that the flexvolt 10in was originally supposed to be a flexvolt launch item but due to changes in minimum table size regulations it was delayed. I expect it to be hybrid in 2 ways. Hybrid in the fact that it can fit the 120v adapter but hybrid in another sense that it would be in the same class as the Ridgid and Delta hybrid table saws. I'm hoping we see a glimpse of the saw at STAFDA 2017. I have the flexvolt table saw and it does the job at least for a starter table saw. Long as I have charged batteries it does what I have needed it to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got some Freud Industrial blades but generally stick with Diablo for ripping stuff down. Odd blade size is mitigated by the calendar saying 2017 and not 1987; blade selection online is ridiculous, prices are great, and there are a plethora of blades available from CMT, Freud, etc. That said, a 10” would have probably 10x the blade selection. 8-8.25 still has everything you could need in a wide variety of kerf, grind, tooth count, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
builditguy Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I say, if you want it, get it. From past experience, if you wait for DeWalt to come out with the next best thing, it may be years. You may see it at a show, but it's still a long way from being available. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The.Handyman Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 10" FlexVolt table saw next year, probably later. Buy the current FlexVolt, it's awesome. Put a 7 1/4 blade on it and go to town. Use the 8.25 blade when need extra depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framer Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 i havent used my flexvolt table saw much, but it seems way better from my old plastic based dewalt table saws. plus for 350 at home depot, i couldnt pass it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
builditguy Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 The other day, I wish I had the flexvolt table saw. Pulled out the saw for a couple small cuts. I will probably get the 8" and not wait for the 10". As stated before, I've learned to not wait on DeWalt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fm2176 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I just got one, based mostly on the recommendations here and various reviews online. Paid $200 but it was a display that is missing the charger and blade. Six more months at my current job and in school, then I hope to have enough time to use all the stuff I've accumulated! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilloncorr Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 I’m really liking mine. Gotta say the stock blade is really rough.... not for thin veneer work!! Replace that right off the bat unless you’re just ripping down 2x4s or timbers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes with the 24 Tooth Blade But they sell a 36 Tooth for finer work. Try that one Ive made Faux Columns with the 36T and had glue ready joints. The Saw is very precise out the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slopjock78 Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 So I picked up the 60V tablesaw at HD yesterday for $250, new in box. I really dont need it, as i have a Ridgid 3650 in my shop, and the dewalt 7499 job site saw. but when i saw that price I just couldnt pass it up. I already have 7 of the smaller 60V batteries, so i should be good on power. So I have a couple questions. First, is this really going to fill a need for me? I know only I can answer that; but to those guys that already have a corded jobsite saw, do you find yourself going more with the flexvolt saw out of convenience, or sticking with the corded saw for capacity and power? Secondly, has anyone run a dado on the flexvolt? I'm currently putting some PVC window trim which has a rabbit cut for the siding to slide under. For the ends, i have to cut my own dado. Can the flexvolt handle this with say a 1/2" worth of dado stack? Thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denrusso Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Another vote for this saw! Only complaint is lack of mounting options for the dewalt stands. Thanks, dr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Running this and my mitre more this past week. Nothing to add to the conversation, just want to reiterate how awesome that pair of tools is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slopjock78 Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 So I finally got the saw out of the box last night. I am a bit disappointed that it cant run a dado stack. However for the price, i'm going to be keeping it. I do still have the 7499 if I need a dado outside of my shop. I ran a 3/4" piece of oak just to test it out, and was simply amazed at the power. I pushed it through faster then I would ever actually feed a piece of oak in real world application, and the saw ate it up. I'll be putting down over 1000 sq ft of hickory hardwood in the next few months. I look forward to trying it out on that flooring to see what it can really do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
