Nimble small circular saw

Skil 5-1/2-inch Saw

The vast majority of wood that people cut is 1-1/2" thick or thinner. So, why use an oversized cumbersome heavy weight 7-1/4" saw? The light weight and small size of the 5-1/2" Skil HD5510 saw improves accuracy, dexterity, safety and reduces fatigue.

Couple the Skil 5-1/2" Circular Saw with the 95100 rip fence accessory and you can cut long even thin strips of wood, vastly easier than is possible with a table saw. The old adage applies, it is much easier to bring the tool the work, than the work to the tool.

You are welcome to insult a tool, but comments containing insults to individual people will be deleted. Corrections of fact are always welcomed, if stated politely. Recommendations of better tools are dearly wanted and may be elevated to the front page.
