A MacAllister circular saw nearly had my bloody hand off it was so
badly made.


As I recall someone saying:

"For many its a question of a £50 insert name of shed special tool
here or not having one at all"

;-)


a) circular saws are amongst the most dangerous power tools. Far more
dangerous than SCMS IMO.

b) MacAllister is promoted as a top brand and isn't especially cheap, in the
same price range as green Bosch, Skill, Ryobi, B&D etc. - all cheapish tools
that work properly.

I returned my 'distress purchased' MacAllister & bought a Makita for a
little more.
