Hello,
I haven't been around in a while. Last week, my trusty B&D circular saw that was probably about 40 years old quit working. It was a good, old saw - very HEAVY, nice big, flat base plate. With a straight edge guide, it did a great job breaking down a lot of plywood. (I replaced the brushes, no luck.)
I have a basement shop and am working on finishing the rest of the basement, so dust collection is very important.
I have an old Skilsaw CS for rougher construction work, but I need a good CS for cutting plywood. I've pretty much decided that a track saw is the best solution for me, but budget is definitely a factor.
I can easily justify the Grizzly track saw, and could possibly push up to the Makita or Dewalt if they are significantly better - but Festool is definitely out of range. Has anyone used the Grizzly and another brand of track saw for a comparison?
I welcome your opinion. Thanks!
