# US Tool and Fastener Blog

[![Festool Kapex miter saw](https://blog.ustoolandfastener.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202020-09-22%20at%2012.09.42%20PM.jpg)](https://blog.ustoolandfastener.com/top-features-essential-tips-for-your-festool-kapex-miter-saw)

# Top Features & Essential Tips For Your Festool Kapex Miter Saw

If you’ve recently bought a Festool Kapex miter saw (or are considering one), we’ll get you started. The [Kapex KS 120 REB](https://www.ustoolandfastener.com/festool-kapex-ks-120-reb-sliding-compound-miter-saw-575306/) is the most advanced sliding compound miter saw on the market—and it makes professional outcomes simple. Deliver the finest trim work and the most precise cuts with these essential considerations:

## **The Festool Kapex KS 120 REB:** Model Updates

First, let’s get to know the features and upgrades to the KS 120 REB over it’s KS 120 EB predecessor:

- **Bigger & More Stable Base:** The slide-out extension tables have a larger footprint on the updated REB model, which significantly boosts stability.

- **New Dust Hose Lock:** The dust collection hose now locks into the dust port, so there will be no accidental disconnects.

- **Dust Hood:** A flexible rubber dust guard at the rear of the blade shields equipment from dust build-up. It can be conveniently folded forward for thinner work or back to accommodate taller pieces.

- **Magnetic Brake:** The efficient direct drive motor spins down quickly (within 3 seconds) with help from an electric, magnetic brake that has no contact points and won’t wear out.

## **5 Essential Tips for Your Festool Kapex Miter Saw**

### **1. Learn to Love the MiterFast Angle Transfer Device**

Paired with the dual laser sights, the precise, locking [MiterFast angle transfer device](https://www.ustoolandfastener.com/festool-kapex-miter-saw-miterfast-angle-transfer-device-200127/) makes it easy to cut perfectly flush, flawless miters. You can see it working magic in live action from 7:20 to 8:25 in this video: 

There’s no more accurate way to make a custom-fit miter cut for irregular inside and outside corners. 

### **2. Make Cleaner Cuts With the Depth Stop and a Sacrificial Fence**

Line up a clamped, sacrificial timber fence behind your workpiece to take full advantage of the depth stop for the best, cleanest cuts.  Woodworker David Stanton shows you how to set it up here:

This trick is useful for all sorts of work, but it’s most impactful on pieces that require precise, narrow depth cuts (such as kerf cuts) that would be tough to make on a stationary saw. Festool shows off the sacrificial fence trick for kerf cuts with the Kapex miter saw in this quick tutorial: 

### **3. Don’t Sleep on the UG Extension Set**

It’s definitely worth packaging the UG extension tables with your initial purchase if you can swing it.  If not, put it on your priority list for later. 

We’re offering a huge $440 discount through October 31st, 2020,  on both [the metric Kapex set](https://www.ustoolandfastener.com/festool-kapex-ks-120-reb-with-metric-ug-set-576863/) and [the imperial Kapex set](https://www.ustoolandfastener.com/festool-kapex-ks-120-reb-with-imperial-ug-set-576862/), including the saw, both UG extension tables, and the mobile stand, all-in-one!

### **4. Maximize Mobility With the Wheeled Kapex Stand**

The Kapex is billed as a super-portable miter saw with its light overall weight and compact design. But nothing will make it more portable than the wheeled Kapex stand, which holds the saw during transport, hooks up to the extension tables, and doubles as a mobile workstation. Check out the convenience and efficiency it provides in this demo video:

And if you didn’t get the wheeled stand along with your saw, don’t worry. It’s always possible to [pick up the mobile Kapex stand separately](https://www.ustoolandfastener.com/festool-ug-kapex-wheeled-stand-only-ks120/).

### **5. Take Other Customers at Their Word!**

At US Tool & Fastener, the glowing reviews keep coming in for this outstanding Festool Kapex miter saw. We love to see our tools satisfying our customers, but they’re even more important for you to see before making your investment. Check out this comprehensive review from Andrew C., following his recent purchase of a Festool Kapex miter saw: 

*“OK...I have purchased an embarrassing number of sliding compound miter saws in over 30 years of being a carpenter. All have been good. I always purchase the best tools that I can afford...these tools help me earn my living...I still get 'excited' about a new tool. This is a saw worth getting excited about. *

*The fit and finish is excellent. Everything is well thought out. The saw is light weight for its cutting capacity. Adjustments are very easily made. Scales are easily read (great for aging eyes). Beveling adjustments are the best I have ever experienced. The laser splitting the saw blade is genius; makes knowing where the cut-line is going to be so fast...no more, repeatedly, dropping the blade to the stock to line up the teeth on the blade to cut marking on the stock. Well done Festool! USTF is the place to buy Festool. *

*Knowledgeable, fantastic customer service, RYAN MURPHY, is one of the best in the business. I always go to him first when looking to make tool purchases. Great guy! Great company!”*
