Terry, I would suggest you check out a Delta before you buy. I did and ended up with the Dewalt- it costs more but snipe is not a problem. You can catch it on sale with an extra set of blade and dust hood for about $350. Drawback is the noise, be sure to wear hearing protection. I don't know about the Makita Del suggests but I do like the Dewalt. Will miss seeing you in Reno!
