Hi all, I am considering the kapex.  Could someone telle if this saw has the detects or markings on the degree scales for cutting crown while laying flat on the saw.  I have been using the Mikita 1016 and I always cut it and cope it    I never try cutting it the "nested" position. 
Thanks in advance

It has marking on the miter scale.
But no marking on the bevel and no detents.
 
interesting question, and one I hadn't thought of. I always cut nested, but it's nice to have the presets on the bevel too. Guess it doesn't matter if you know what the spring is and and can dial it in real nice. I would rather have that weightless dial in the Kapex has than the crown bevel detents anyway.
