5.0 out of 5 stars Great Zero Clearance Saw. Happy Customer!
2 months review, self-employed 25+ yrs, family owned business 150+ yrs. Needed to make 300+ feet of 0 clearance cuts and this saw did it flawlessly. One review said it has a plastic base, but I cut into it and it’s made of metal, probably magnesium, with a coating that makes it feel like a plastic. If you need to make 0 clearance cuts, this is the saw to get, hands down. Extremely well built, worm drive motor will last forever, everything is heavy-duty, much more so than any of the other saws I’ve personally owned. Very impressed, even showing it off to anyone I think would care about such a thing.
That said, this won’t replace my daily use circular saw. In my opinion it’s too heavy and cumbersome for what we do most. But for what it does there’s nothing better. Some people complain about the proprietary saw blades, but I don’t see how they could use a normal blade and still be 0 clearance because the arbor nut would get in the way. The 8.5 inch blade is capable of deeper cuts than your typical 7.25 inch saw. This is especially useful for cutting most I-joists in one pass, which your normal circular saws are not capable of.
If I’m going to buy a saw for one specific job that doesn’t come up very often, it’s really nice that it has a larger blade on it. I will most likely use this saw for it’s deeper cut more often than the 0 clearance feature. Very happy customer. This is a monster of a saw,.. in a good way. Thank you Cuz-d for making this saw, you saved me a ton of time replacing 40+ sheets of subfloor.
