Makita XSH03Z 18 Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 6-1/2 Inch Circular Saw with Makita BL1850B 18 Volt LXT Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah Battery

The Makita 18v has been a fan of mine for quite a while, which is why I decided to get this. I was particularly happy with the price, as it was the lowest I found anywhere. The batteries in the saw were old, so I bought a fresh 4Ah battery for it. You've got a good enough reason to invest in a new battery, don't you think? A person can never have too much. When I last used a cordless saw, it was my dad's old 19, which I still have in a box in my basement. There was also a 2 volt craftsman that was "okay," nothing outstanding. When it comes to cordless saws, I was hesitant at first. What a mistake I made and what a pity I missed it. Where did my desire for so long come from?

I haven't had a chance to use it too much, but it's been very powerful in anything I've cut. My partner and I have been breaking down full-sheet 3/4 MDF recently and it cut through it smoothly. The cutting is perfect, with no bogging down and with a blade that makes a smooth cut with no bogging down. The dust collection port is also a great feature, which works I noticed there was no or very little dust when I was cutting the MDF. I was surprised by how well it worked. The best part is that my hose hooks up perfectly. As a result of purchasing this saw, I have not used my old corded Makita 7 1/4" circular since buying this one. I've never had to use In addition, the old saw doesn't have a dust collector. It is easy to make adjustments and there are many options available. It may not be necessary for me to have the rafter hook, since I am a woodworker at home. I was so close to buying the black compact brushless before I purchased this unit, and I am so glad I opted not to. The product costs more initially, but after reading reviews and watching video reviews, it turns out to be so much cheaper than originally thought. There is only one thing I dislike, and that is that I had to purchase the dust collection ports separately, it should be included I had to buy the port from a third party as well. The circular saw dust collection is a great addition to a circular saw, very pleased with its features and glad to cut the cord. The product was excellent and I would definitely buy again.

I attached my corded saw to the pole. I bought this corded saw when I was a carpenter and haven't used it once. That really comes in handy when I need to cut materials for the truck which is particularly true when I am at the lumber yard. It is not necessary for me to wait another hour for someone It will handle 99 percent of the work a carpenter will need to do. However, if you are a deck builder or have to tear down a 30 ft level, this might not be for you. I have been using a circular saw like this one for over 3 years and so far it's been Weighs so little, helps so much, and is so convenient.

I Go Up. You can do it however you like! The best saw I've seen! In contrast to a worm drive saw, this saw is not a replacement for one. Despite this, I find myself using it more than my worm drive.

It brings a lot of convenience. Over an extended period of work won't tire you out. It may not always be However, it has no problem being bent at different angles / cut at different lengths. Vertical cuts, horizontal cuts, and side to side cuts. As you can see, the picture is clear. It is not safe or practical to use a worm, or a corded circular for that matter, in certain angles. In contrast to torque, speed is faster. Through decreasing the blade diameter and accelerating the revolution speed, Makita (and others) have found a balance that allows them to make products that are not expensive, but have very good quality With the corded saw, you can easily rip through materials. The motor is primarily a speed motor rather than a torque one. This blade is able to cut through dimensional lumber without difficulty. In 9 out of 10 cases, there will be no lock up on 2x4, any problem on 2x6. You may have to bind the saw if the material is wet or the blade is not perched flat during the cut as you get to larger boards. The thing is that it does not present a problem, but you just must be aware

The saw is perfect for cutting sheet goods. The worm saw I had has proven a lot less reliable than this saw for me. There was a time when I had a corded direct drive circular that was stolen, but This is how long the battery lasts. I have no problem with that. The 18v 3 version has not caused any complaints. The battery contains no lithium. My old one was destroyed by a tree, and I am so happy to have this new one! This is a highly recommended product.

You'll need to get the Ultra Thin Makita blade (one is included) rather than the slightly thicker 6-inch blade A blade such as the Diablo 1/2" or similar is available at Home Depot or Lowe's. With a thin kerf the blade is less likely to bind and can cut with ease It would take around a 2 Amp- long time to cool down the two-amped battery when this tool cut notches in Southern Yellow Pine in 100° F heat without time for it to cool off The battery lasts for one hour for every ten stair cuts Ten cuts of 7 inches (10x 7 inches + 10 inches + ends) * approximately 20 feet of cutting through sticky 2 A material is classified by its properties. This product works with the 18 V, 2 AH, and 3 AH batteries that come in the drill/driver starter kits, but you will likely need more than one battery to carry out It is recommended for use with larger batteries, such as those rated for four AH, five AH, six AH, and more.

The new Makita tool I have for my business is by far the worst of all the ones I have.
