If the tool is used quite often, when choosing a saw, many pay attention to the location of the engine. It comes in two versions, longitudinal and transverse. Experts believe that it is much easier to work with a saw with the engine along the tire. In addition, longitudinal units have better balancing.
Types of electric saws
If you need to cut a variety of materials of plywood, wood, plastic, chipboard, metal pipes and sheets, you should purchase a circular (circular) saw. Cutting is done with a rotating saw blade, and there are specific types of blades for each material. There are two variants of models, manual and fixed, attached to the bed.
A fairly versatile tool is a reciprocating saw, which is often used for cutting in hard-to-reach places. It is convenient for roofing and installation work. The working element is a file, the length of which varies from 0.1 m to 0.35 m. It produces oscillatory or translational movements.
Smooth, neat, even curly cut can be made with a jigsaw. It works equally well with ceramics, wood, laminate and metal. The file (working blade) of a jigsaw is indispensable if you need to cut a round hole or make a curved cut.
The best saws for summer cottages are recognized as chain aggregates, the main active element of which is a tire with a chain stretched over it. It is easy to use, relatively compact, and does not require fuel mixture preparation. Almost all gardening work can be done with its help: to knock down an old tree, cut off branches and branches, saw a trunk. It is good for carpentry and construction, especially in confined spaces.
When working with a chain saw outdoors, you must follow the safety rules. For example, the tool cannot be used when it rains, a short circuit is possible
about the chain saw
First, consider the characteristics that you need to pay attention to when buying.
Hand circular saw. How to choose a saw
Many decide on how to choose a saw only from whether it is a household tool or a professional one.
In theory, everything is correct: a professional hand-held circular saw is designed for continuous and intensive use in difficult conditions, and a household saw is usually only used occasionally. Naturally, the power tool of these two classes has differences in functionality and, of course, in price.
In life, not everything is clear: a professional hand-held circular saw can fail in a short time, and a household saw will serve faithfully for many years. The reason for this is many circumstances, including a banal accident, but the main reason for the failure of a power tool is its improper operation.
How to choose the right circular saw
Before choosing a saw, you need to clearly identify the purpose for which the tool is purchased and only then, based on this, consider in detail the parameters of each of the pre-selected models.
Almost all other parameters of the tool depend on the outer diameter of the circular saw blade, the main of which is the maximum cutting depth.
The most widespread are hand-held circular saws with the ability to cut to a depth of about 50-70mm. These saws are quite maneuverable and allow most basic operations to be performed without much physical effort. Lighter and more compact saws with cutting depths up to 40mm are easier to use when processing thin materials.
Actually, with such a circular saw, you can cut a fairly thick bar if necessary, but you will have to cut from both sides. However, another power tool is available for working with thick wood such as thick planks and tree trunks. Read up on how to choose the right chain saw.
Heavy professional hand-held circular saws with a cutting depth of 100-130mm and even more are a high-performance tool for performing large volumes of work. Such saws weigh more than 10 kilograms, it is difficult to work with them for a long time, and the accuracy of work suffers, therefore in this category it is advisable to choose a saw that can be installed permanently.
Saw blade diameter and saw power are directly related: the larger the diameter, the more powerful the tool. The saw motor is subjected to very severe stress during operation. The choice of a saw in terms of power is exactly the case when the stock is not superfluous: the more powerful the better, and the longer the tool will serve you.
Almost all models of hand-held circular saws have the ability to change the cutting angle from 0 (vertical position) to 45, and sometimes even more degrees, for ease of operation. The cutting angle is adjusted by tilting and fixing the platform in the desired position according to the scale marks on the tool.
When choosing a hand-held circular saw, it is customary to pay attention to the sole of the tool. The cast base is more rigid and does not deform over time, however, if the saw sole is made of thick sheet metal, then it will last no less than a cast one. In addition, if you are not going to set the circular saw in a stationary position, then you may not be so critical of the stiffness of the sole.
Personally, I preferred to choose the SPARKY professional TK 70 hand-held circular saw. For my needs in suburban construction, its capabilities are enough for the eyes.
