The saw is excellent! I love how easy it is to use and how cleanly it cuts my hair! If you buy the blade kit with the item, you will need to find out that the blades are the wrong size after the 30 day return period ended. That's why I gave it a 3 star. There is no space left for the dw3983c and 3984c blades. A blade length of about 44" or 45" is required for this saw. Attached is a picture of the difference in the blade sizes from what comes with the saw. I have also suggested a smaller replacement blade.
Contrary to torturous hacksaws and reciprocating saws, this saw makes cutting metal pipe, brackets, metals, etc. very easy and fast. There is nothing wrong with this tool except that Dewalt didn't include the model number of the replacement blades in the manual and Amazon's "Frequently bought together" info with the following items listed incorrectly The DEWALT DW3984C is a 24 TPI portable band saw blade, 3" long and 3" wide The price of the pack is A DEWALT DW3983C 18 TPI portable band saw blade, 3-1/2" is 99 cents. The price of the pack is I also turned to Google for help, so after more than an hour of looking through the manual and doodling, I decided to copy and paste the information from an order I just placed on Amazon with the correct blade model numbers and the information The following can be found in These blades on this band saw are designed to be used with a portable bandsaw.

How did I ever survive? It makes me happy. Despite being among the top 3 favorites of my tools, my Dewalt 12v gyroscopically operated screwdriver and Dewalt 20v multi-purpose tool are my top favorites. An important tool. There is no doubt it has enough power for all I've used it for (mainly gutting an old Victorian The controls are intuitive and sturdy, so in the future you will be able to cut beams, pipes, etc. ) This is capable of acting as a small tabletop bandsaw if you so desire. We have to face the facts Using a hacksaw to manually cut anything is not the best idea. It was the first time I cut my blade through 3/4" OD steel nipples as easily as a sharp knife through a carrot that I fell IMPORTANT NOTE Consider getting the deep cut instead of the other when you're contemplating one of these, so that you won't have to return the other one later on when it becomes too small for one of the first tasks you try it on.
As one review said, "don't really see the need for it, but after I bought it, I realized it was useful. ". The tool was designed to cut right through 4 inch thick cast iron vises. A quick walk around the shop will help you find stuff to cut with it when you first get it. Forget cutting 1/2 inch threaded rod held in a vise. No lubricant in the stainless pipe, 4 inches by 3/16 inch by 1/4 inch thick. I have no problem with that! This is butter. What do you have to gain from cutting off the fender of your truck and giving it to a girl? This is easy.
What a coincidence that DeWalt would name this piece after themselves. Hence, I gave it a zero star rating. It has happened to me on occasion to have the blade jump off of track when it gets stuck in the track with both 110 volt and battery powered portable band saws. All you have to do is install the blade and you're back in business. Walt would never do such a thing! There is a rubber piece that goes around the wheel that drives the motor. There is no lip on the wheel to prevent blades from getting behind the wheel and jamming in between the wheels and saw bodies. This saw was used to make two cuts. Taking the first cut in the blade jump track. There was a jam in the blade. The blade was destroyed as a result of the accident. After making the second cut my blade jammed behind my drive wheel and broke the rubber piece on the track. The blade has been The design of this saw has two major flaws. The first thing that is ridiculous is wrapping a rubber band around the drive wheel that rides the saw blade. Such a statement will never stand the test of time. The second design was for a saw that cost around 350 dollars. There is an inadequacy of engineering work on the part of 00 that allows the saw blade to get in between the drive wheel and saw housing when the blade jumps tracks. It is suggested to redesign the wheels that saw blades ride on so that they do not bounce inwards when the blade comes off the wheels. When blades come off wheels, they are designed to come of tracks moving outward, not inward. This item needs to be redesigned.
It is one of the first tools I grab, it is used for so many different settings in the fab industry, especially when I am Additionally, this tool works great for cutting rails on the roof, no more throwing your arm about and having to clean up after This product fits 3 inch conduit and pallet corners perfectly. The two men that I work for are interested in getting one neither of them have a 20v dewalt. I am on my first blade and do not skip a beat, I am using four of them. I run my applications on 0ah batteries and have no problem with battery life.
As HD did not have this model in stock, I purchased the DCS371B from them instead. At $219, it was a good tool, but was a little pricey. Compared to today's brushless motor, the 95 was an older model. For me, Dewalt brushless is a huge thing thanks to their cordless drills I've been using for many years. I own all other cordless tools from Dewalt and they perform better and last longer between battery replacements now that they are brushless. That was my experience with the bandsaw, as well. I had to buy the DCS374B after seeing it for only $50 more here on Amazon a few days after purchasing the DCS371B. It's really great, the DCS374 is clearly more powerful, as the DCS371 looks and feels like a toy. Not to mention the brushless motor and far deeper cut. The quality of this cut is superior to what we get with our grinder for many jobs.
