Even if it won't cut 61/2" it should have a pretty capable capacity plus given De walt's reputation for quality my mind was made up. I do have as you know a few De Walt tools and have been very happy with them. Pricey, yes but still cheaper than a Festool Kapex. ;D Just need a set of dumbells now to get me strength up for carryin it. ;D By the way it's my early Christmas Box. 
in transit I think. when I took it out of the box which seemed to be well packed the mitre lock handle fell off!! it had broken through the pivot point. I called the company who supplied it and they asked if I could replace the part to which I said I could and he has popped one in the post to me. Good service I would say. Neil who I spoke to asked me for a serial number off the box which gives him the identity of who refurbished it and took the details. I was quite happy with this situation rather than return the item as it is pretty heavy and rather large. Now after inspection of the saw I am unsure as to how the offending item comes apart as the pivot pin looks like it is a drift fit on splines into the alloy casting of the base. (I assumed it was a circlip that held it at first glance) Does anyone know how the pivot pin is supposed to come out? Not sure if it needs a special puller or if it is just hammered out? 
If she finds out I won't get a chance to use them. 
Not bad as the whole lot has cost me 0„5610! ;D
