Dewalt DW743 Flip Saw

The Classic TGS Style Flip Over Combination Woodworking Saw

The Dewalt DW743N is the latest in the classic "TGS" style of flip over type combination saws.

This versatile woodworking saw is unique in its ability to transform rapidly from a conventional saw bench into a "chop" mitre saw.

With the purchase of a Dewalt DW743 you are effectively getting two woodworking saws for the price of one!

As with all Dewalt Power Tools this particular model is tough, robust, and made to a very high standard for the professional tradesman.

The new Dewalt DW743 flip saw features a powerful high output electric induction motor that produces very high levels of cutting torque. Being brushless this motor is designed to give years of service and in particular is very quiet running. This makes it ideal for workshop and site use where low noise characteristics are required.

The majority of the components on the DW743N are of metal construction including the supporting legs, side frames, and the saw table bed itself. Even the saw blade guards on the DW743 are made of metal. All this amounts up to it being a very tough saw that can cope with heavy work use indoors or out.

Being probably the most versatile saw in the Dewalt Tool range the DW743 can handle a large range of cutting angles and profiles. With a 250mm TCT blade fitted as standard equipment it can cut up to 70mm depth in one pass when in bench mode. When used as a mitre saw this model can handle almost every angle a joiner or builder would need. It can adjust to a bevel capacity of 45 degrees left and right with a mitre capacity the same.

To aid portability the saw has integrated carry handles. The legs also remove being clamped in place with a screw adjuster on each corner of the flip saw itself.

As with all power tools manufactured by Dewalt the DW743N is not the "cheapest woodworking saw" you can buy, but does represent excellent value for money for what you get!
