07Sierra Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 How is the mastercraft stand is holding up i was thinking of getting one nice saw me i have the dw703 and loving it I find it very well built for the money, it's on sale right now for 99.99... extends out to a total of 10 feet end to end, the clamps hold tight and legs fold easily.... Worth the money for sure, father in law likes it too... He has the older version and still holding tuff Not sure how much I'll use the saw but I love it so far... only cut a few boards but works nice... First thing is finishing of the side fence you can see in the pictures, building all the fence over with a gate... After that. new doors for the shed... Then gonna help my dad with his new back steps and probably try and start building a few things for myself... Thinking about some nice books shelves, few things here and there and maybe sell em just to keep busy and learn new things... Not sure when but in year or 2 were gonna build a new garage, redo the basement... Won't be all right away but I got the saw to do it Just thought I'd be better off having a good saw now like I said and have it forever, and if came down to it, I could sell it for good money being a Dewalt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conductor562 Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 That's a nice stand for $99. Even has a touch of hangover piss yellow on it to match Seriously though, that was a hell of a price on the 780. Nice setup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric - TIA Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nice saw. I use mine a lot and it has been great. I have seen some people complain about the slide being hard when cutting, but mine is smooth. How is yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen some people complain about the slide being hard when cutting, but mine is smooth. How is yours? It isn't to bad, when i first took it out of the box it was ruff but I worked it a bit and used a bit of lube on the rails and it has gotten better.... Still not as smooth as some other saws out there but it's not to bad I really like the saw though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Wray Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Very cool Dewalts Sierra! Those are going to make redoing your fence fun (well a little funner). I have had my eye on the tough boxes for a long time. Looks like you take good care of your tools. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had my eye on the tough boxes for a long time. Looks like you take good care of your tools. Nice. That I do, I always have... If your gonna pay good money for expensive tools you may as well take care of them... My most common used tools like my 3 speed driver and the drill, impact ready bits, and everything else is always kept in the tough box which to me is one of the nicest tool boxes on the market,,, Everything is always locked in the shed, blown off with compressed air when finished using them etc... You should see my truck if you want to see taken care of lol2007 GMC Sierra SLT Z71 4WD with like 90,000 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
