Joshua B. was the one who spotted the new Hercules Miter Saw Stand and, following HF product videos, spotted a few new items that were previously undiscovered in the same video. We can see a new Hercules table saw in the video in the short clip where the guy takes the miter saw out of his truck but in that same truck bed is a new portable Hercules branded table saw in the back. Its not the best of pictures as the spotlight of the video is not on the table saw but on the miter saw.
The short clip shows that it is a portable tablesaw. It looks just like Hercules’ power tools. The rack and pinion fence system of Dewalt is what I don’t see. I also don’t see the turning knob. We might be able to see this feature as the Dewalt replica would not exist without it.
We also see the Hercules miter saw attached to a Hercules branded miter saw stand. We can’t see much of the entire thing, but we can see that the miter saw is solid and has sliding extensions. It also has folding legs. What I cant tell is if it has built in wheels or not for transport. This video focuses on the miter saw and not other parts.
Although it is difficult to see the details on the saw because it is in the back of your frame, and slightly out-of-focus, you can see that the saw has a built-in rafter hook. This was something I did not expect. Very few cordless circular saws have rafter hooks and most that do are regular sized 7-1/10 cm inch models. This does not mean that the model will be a 7-1/10cm model, as it has been advertised as a 6-inch model.
These tools will be available soon so I am curious how much they will retail at. They obviously cant compete head to head in price as that would defeat the purpose of shopping at Harbor Freight so its guaranteed they will be cheaper than their name brand counterparts, but by how much? Hercules’ new miter saw is cheaper than the Dewalt counterpart, but still expensive for Harbor Freight! Their miter saw stand won’t retail for anywhere near the same price as Dewalt’s. My guess is that it will be under. Dewalt is selling the DWE7480 tablesaw for so you would think they would. However, Dewalt’s DW745 tablesaws are still being sold for around 330. It is still a strong table saw at that price.
As for the cordless 20V Hercules circular saw, Dewalts 6-
