Makita 5090DW 9.6-Volt 3-3/8-Inch Cordless Circular Saw Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I originally bought this for one special use: to cut drywall once it was on the wall.I never intended to use it for anything else.After some experimenting with it, I use this tool more often for more tough wood cuts than any other tool I have.It can cut 3/4" hardwood plywood cleanly and easily without shredding the edges, and if you need to make an angle cut into plywood, it does it cleanly and easily.This also makes incredible cuts in 3/4", 1/2", and 3/8" hardwood flooring and 3/8" Pergo.
It's front sight-guide is perfectly aligned to the blade, so if you draw a line on the wood first, this will cut perfectly in the center of the line.The thin blades are the exact width of the line drawn by a normal construction pencil.
If you are going to do a lot of cuts in a day (150+ feet), you will want a second battery handy.
For blades, if you can't find 3 3/8 blades, you can use 3 1/2 blades with no problem (most hardware stores carry some nice ones for as little as [amount]).
I have a table saw, sliding compound mitre saw, jigsaw, and many other kinds of saws, but I use this one more than any other.All of my friends have now after I brought this to their house to use (since it is so small, portable, and ultralight).
