Default 18v circular saws - any good?

good for flooring unless it had extension arms, which pushes the
price up? Any suggestions as where to get a cheap one?


B&Q have got one for 35 quid, but it may have been an end of range.
As regards the extension arms you only need to support the workpiece,
so suitable sized offcuts of wood are fine.

I've not laid laminate flooring, so you'd have to check the saw will
cope with the width. They do sliding ones which definitely would, but
they're over 100 quid.


I meant sliding arms not extensions - thanks for the suggestion.
