Our take on the DEWALT 8-1/4" Portable Jobsite Table Saw w/ Stand

The DeWalt 8-1/4" Portable Jobsite Table Saw is a compact saw on a folding stand, built to be carried to a site and set up fast. Its smaller blade and lighter frame make it easier to move than 10-inch contractor saws, but it cuts thinner stock and shallower depths. It suits trim carpenters, remodelers and homeowners who need a saw that travels and stows. Against full-size jobsite saws it trades cut capacity for portability.

Questions and answers

How does it compare with a 10-inch jobsite saw?

It is smaller and easier to carry, but its 8-1/4-inch blade cuts shallower and its table is smaller. A 10-inch saw handles thicker stock and bigger panels.

Is the stand included?

Yes. The saw comes with a folding stand, so it can be set up and packed away without a separate bench.

What can it cut?

It handles trim, rips and crosscuts in common dimensional lumber and sheet goods. Very thick stock and full sheets are better left to a larger saw.

Is it good for a small shop?

Yes. It folds down and takes little floor space, which suits garages and tight work areas.

Does it need a dedicated circuit?

It runs on standard household power, so a normal outlet works. Check the saw's motor rating before running it on a long extension cord.
