Stationary powerful circular saws for wood. Rating of manual circular electric saws according to user reviews. Best Lightweight Circular Saw for Thin Material

Good day!
Thanks to those who responded to questions about the alteration of the old country house. Advice accepted, but not yet implemented - the circumstances. I'm getting ready to take up the dacha next season and having saved up some money I want to buy some of the tools.
Question: Who understands circular saws? Help, please, with a choice. You need a reliable, convenient and inexpensive tool. The saw will be used during the reconstruction of the dacha (own). Not in extreme mode (I will not do a sawmill). Floors, wall cladding (plasterboard, siding on the outside), country furniture, veranda, etc.). I wanted to be able to install on a table like a workbench and partially perform work as on stationary saw, but when studying the market, it turned out that such saws are either too expensive or domestic (Russia, Latvia). In particular REBIR RZ-2-70 is too heavy and uncomfortable in the hands.

Honestly, it's probably just as good. Messing with manual guard retraction is not recommended. Any inconvenience here is more for a 22-year-old boy with a carriage knee, who thinks it makes him more human if he pins a guard with a bent hanger. It was the lightest saw we've tested and it's hard to imagine one with more comfortable handles. The main handle is lightly textured and perfectly contoured to the hand. The front panel handle was the most comfortable on any saw we tested.

The miniaturization of the blade is reflected in the rest of the design, resulting in a small saw with a very light weight. Cutting 4×4 will take two passes, no matter what you used. 6½" blades are not as ubiquitous as 7¼" blades, but they are still widely available. Most cordless circular saws use 6½-inch blades, which helps explain their easy accessibility. The magnesium base plate is thinner than the rest, and the cutting depth is a sticker. This last one was a bit of a curiosity for us, but after using the saw for as long as we have, we don't feel it affects the accuracy of the cut at all.

Besides, a light weight and ease of handling are likely to benefit the first user. Norm Abram, from this old house, goes into more detail about some other common uses for this tool. I like its durability and clear markings.

How about cordless circular saws?

On others, the finish chips, or they are lightly dented. Cordless circular saws are convenient, but for most, they're not worth the extra cost. If you already have a set of cordless tools, getting a cordless saw can make sense, although even buying one without a battery comes with a price premium. At this price, you can get our recommended saw blade and about 100 feet of high quality extensions and still have money. If you really don't need the portability and quick setup of a wireless cable, a quality wired tool will be a better fit.

Although powerful and affordable. But more critical for me, perhaps, is the ability, if necessary, to cut both plastic and drywall and something else. Therefore, I drew attention to the model with adjustable speed Bosch PKS 54 CE.

You won't have to worry about battery life or that the tool isn't powerful enough for the task. However, if a wireless device is what you're after, then the Milwaukee associated with it is exceptional. Another style of saw besides direct drives are worm drives or hypoid saws. These large saw blades are designed to replace blade speed for torque. Because of their irresistible strength, they are popular with tradesmen, in particular for those who need the ability to quickly and repeatedly cut through thick pieces of dense engineered lumber.

And also on Makita, but it is without adjustable speed

And more helpful:

It's unlikely that someone working their road needs the extra power, but they'll certainly feel the extra weight since most worms are in the 13lb range.


However, they offer some benefits for the power user. As we said, they are very powerful and it takes a lot to stop them.

Blades go a long way with a saw. Even the best saws in the world will not work well with a dull blade. During the whole working day on the weekend, a good blade, taken care of, can in last years. The more teeth a blade has, the less likely it is that the notch will blow out, which is important for lined surfaces such as birch plywood.

Yes, Bosch is even more powerful, but without electronics (without adjustable speed)
Bosch PKS 66

Eventually, the blade will become dull or the tooth will break. Often they suffer from a buildup of flour around the teeth that can be cleaned. Many local hardware stores also offer blade sharpening services for a few dollars. As far as buying specifics for blades, a part-time job can get by with a 24-tooth cutting blade for rough work and a 60-tooth blade for fine finishing.

For some reason, it has always been difficult to hit a cut with a slab sitting on a tree. We have rejected a number of other saws without testing due to features or weight. According to both reviews, this is an exceptional saw. We have no doubts about the quality of the saw, but we feel that our choice completely covers all the needs of the casual user at a lower price. At almost 10½ pounds, that's at least a pound more than our pick, which, again, we feel more than meets the needs of the average user.

The issue of price is important for me, so I want to keep within $200 (preferably less), there are also Blaucraft, Skil, Intercol (in particular, DP 2000 $135), but somehow my soul does not lie with them.
Thank you all in advance!
