I hear ya, but for what it's worth, I've come to the conclusion that it's probably worth considering where the parent company is headquartered as well (i.e where the bulk of the profits are going). Unfortunately, other than Black & Decker (bottom-tier) & Craftsman (mid-tier), DeWalt is the only major powertool brand based in the US, now. The parent companies of Milwaukee, Flex, EGO, Greenworks, Skil, Ryobi, and Ridgid(orange - not red) are all based in China, so if we were to switch to anything other than Bosch, Metabo/Hitachi, Makita, Festool/Sawstop, or Hilti, we'd be switching to a company that's actually *based* in China as well as making their products in China. Such is the world in which we live, now. I'm with you though, I'd love to see production come back.

What is a good dust bag for this?

What about the tracks?

Hi Matthew. The DCS525 Track Saw is offered in 3 different configurations. The DCS525B is just the saw, so if you already have tracks, you can just upgrade your saw. If you do not have tracks but are in the DEWALT 20V platform, the DCS525ST is the Track Saw and Tracks, but no batteries or charger. If you would like to purchase the Track Saw Kit, DCS525STWW1, it comes with the saw, track, battery, and charger. We have linked them below.
