What type of circular saw do you have?
Hi, I'm bored so,
What type of circular saw do you have?
My circular saw is older than i am (i think). it is on of those mustard colur black and decker saws. By memory the blade size is 140mm. so i'm off to my Nannas to get my uncles black Black and decker circular saw(if it works).

I have a Bosch GKS 7 1/4
PeterThe other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".

6 1/4 Makita
7 1/4 Makita
8 1/4 Makita
Favorite by a country mile is the 6 1/4.
I bought a 9 1/4 Black And Decker Saw Cat (Now a Dewalt) years ago when I was a 1st year. Unfortuantly 6 months later someone decided they needed it more than me, replaced it with the 8 1/4 and never found the need to get another 9 1/4.Last edited by Kyle; 24th September 2009 at 07:24 PM.

Makita 9 1/4" x 2 and a crappy GMC 7 1/4". These days I rarely if ever use the bigger saws as I don't need the depth of cut and they are to heavy for most tasks. The little GMC is fine, but if I was to start again now a 7 1/4" Makita would be all I'd buy.

So gerhard looks like u have one of everything
Me, well just the Festool TS55 and the Makita N5900B (235mm). Seems to cater for all of my wood butchering needs.www.lockwoodcanvas.com.au
I will never be the person who has everything, not when someone keeps inventing so much cool new stuff to buy.
From an early age my father taught me to wear welding gloves . "Its not to protect your hands son, its to put out the fire when u set yourself alight".

De Walt 184, used constantly.
GMC Platinum 235, used a fair bit for bearers etc.
Towa speed saw 235, mounted on an old Triton table, mainly used for ripping.
Skil Sher 5 & a quarter, hand me down from the 1960's, only for show.

Circular Saw.
Hi Harrison,
Mine is most likely like Soloist's saw.
Big, Heavy, Powerful " Towa " 9 1/4in. When this saw was made, I don't think
mm. were in then, so that is why I stated Inches.
A very nice saw, & as I said Powerful, & with a 60 tooth TCT Blade, so you hang on reasonably tight.
Paid $70 from a Dec. Estate.
I thought that was about right money at that time, 10 yrs ago.
That's my bit.
Regards,
issatree.
