Steven Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 1. I heard that the optional laser (DW7187) only works with the Type 1 & 2, but not the Type 3. Is this right or is there a different/revised model laser that will work? 2. Will the LED worklight system (DWS7085) work with my saw & can with be used with the laser above, or can you just have only one attached at a time? 3. To mount the saw on the DWX723 big long stand, do I need to buy the DW7231 mounting brackets also? 4. I seen on the internet the DW7082 vertical clamp was maybe discontinued? If so, is there a replacement part #? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pick the light over the laser. 3) No, the DWX723 comes with the brackets. 4) Looks available to me: http://dewalt.com/tools/miter-saw-attachments-dw7082.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted March 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Well i took back the DW715 & got the $600 DWS780 + free DWX723 stand (with this saw purchase until 4/30/2013 @ Lowe's). I liked the DW715 saw; it was lighter & smaller. But my wife got to totaling up the 'extras' i wanted; DWX723 stand ($200) + DW7082 vertical clamp ($50) + laser/LED ($100?) + what i already paid for the DW715 saw ($250) = $600. The 'extras' for the DW715 was already there for the DWS780. So i would have ended up paying the exact same eventually. Hmmmmm....... Yeah, i think i did good. I do appreciate & "applaud" Gatorb888 for helping though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
