DWS779 vs LS1219L
DEWALT DWS779 vs Makita U.S.A. LS1219L. Of the 4 figures both makers publish, none differs outright. 3 are worded too differently to set side by side: arbor, crosscut capacity and included. Both are miter saws with the same blade diameter: blade diameter 12 in. on the DWS779, 12" on the LS1219L, in their makers' figures.

Stated differently, not directly comparable
The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.
- Arbor: DWS779: 12" (305 mm) saw blades with either 1" (25.4 mm) or 5/8" (15.88 mm) arbor holes; speed rating at least 4800 RPM. LS1219L: 1".

Where the table has one figure and a dash, only DEWALT's cited pages give voltage and bevel capacity; only Makita U.S.A.'s cited pages give speed, dimensions and weight. Those rows are open questions for the other maker, not ties between the DWS779 and LS1219L.
