Great for scribing

The saw being light and fast is great for plastic laminate counter tops. You have to take care not to bend the base of the saw. If you put the saw loose in your truck where it might bounce around the base might go out of alignment and then you'll have a heck of a time running along a straight edge.

Pros
light weight. Directional exhaust
Cons
touchy base

Category: Cool Tools

There has been a lot of buzz about Track Saws with both DeWalt, and Makita finally coming out with versions for the USA. But I bet many people don't know that you can turn just about any circular saw into a track saw for a fraction of the cost of a complete track saw package all with a kit from EurekaZone. After all, why should you have to buy another circular saw if you already own one, especially if it's a saw you really like? Who needs Festool when you can make a track saw with your own circular...
