Hi,  I just got a DW715 and absolutely love it.  I am going to order the clamp, but wonder if there any time that I would use 2 instead of just 1 clamp when cutting.  Thanks!

If you were cutting a very long piece of material you may want to use 2 clamps. That’s if the material is longer than your supports, and you run the risk of the piece you are cutting to pop up after the cut. If you have good support on both end’s of you material, one clamp would be fine.

Hi Dewaltdude, Thanks so much!!  I would rather spend the extra on a nailer… or at least a girl can wish!
