I'm looking to get a new 12" CMS. I prefer the Dewalts, but am deciding between the 705 and the 706. The 706 has dual bevel and greater verticle cutting capacticity. At Sears, the 706 will only cost $20 more after rebate and discount. However, the 705 comes with one extension and the extentions can be stored under the saw completely retracted. Extensions can't be retracted on the 706.
This is for home use. I'm planning on using it immediately for cross cutting, new baseboards, and new crown. Who knows what in the future. Footprint is somewhat important, and weight not so much.
Any opinion?
