Most helpful customer reviews59 of 60 people found the following review helpful.Great saw but don't buy the lightBy Byard MillerThe saw is great the light is not. The light does not stay adjusted as the saw is used. It is virtually impossible to replace the bulb. If you can get the bulb out, finding a replacement is difficult. Don't bother to order the light!13 of 14 people found the following review helpful.Nothing that some re-engineering couldn't fix.By WoodchipsThe saw is great, the light needs a little work. Unlike what the picture implies, the light fastens at the very back of the saw. The light extends out straight to the front of the saw. Given how far out it has to stretch and with the weight of the light fixture attached, it should be stiffer. After running the saw for a while, the light actually starts to droop down. You have to keep pushing it up. The size of the light head is nice as you can get close to your work without the fixture obstructing your view. The downside of the fixture size is that the bulb is difficult to screw in. There's no room to get your fingers around the bulb. I finally taped a piece of masking tape to the front lens so I could screw it in. I'm not looking forward to replacing the bulb, I don't know how I would loosen it. The unit is made in China but is well constructed. Nothing sloppy about it. Bolts on the saw perfectly using the two rearmost bolts that are already on the saw. The hex key they provide could be a little better fit but it did work. All in all the concept is a good one. It's a nice accessory to have, makes cutting a lot easier. I hope Dewalt will re-engineer it and bring it up to the standard of their scroll saw.11 of 12 people found the following review helpful.Nothing that some re-engineering couldn't fix.By WoodchipsThe saw is great, the light needs a little work.
