Dewalt DW705

[brooklyn]

I just purchased a Dewalt miter saw model DW705 type 4 at a flea mkt. It has a brand new Dewalt 80 tooth blade and is in good shape. The manufacture date is 9709. Does anyone out there have or ever had this model Dewalt miter saw. I am new to this forum and I do a lot of handyman work for friends and for clients. I did not want to spend $300 for a new DW715 so when I found this I immediately bought it (paid $100).

Hi there,
If the saw runs and it is cutting true, I don't think you got hurt buying this saw. It was manufactured in '97 the way it looks, so depending how hard the tool was used it might need brushes. If it has a new 80 tooth blade in it, that alone is worth $85 if it is a decent blade. I hope this helps,
