Ancient B&D circular saw just died in middle of a bit of flooring
chipboard so I cannot wait for special deals. I have read the Wiki and
past recommendations. The Makita 5704RK looks as if it wd do me and is
within budget at £100 online. I've also read the recommendations for
the Hitachi C7 but am a bit lost as there seem to be so many variants -
C7SS, C7U2, CD7SA.
Any suggestions as to which of these, or others, is worth my pension
please?
I bought a BD 7.25" saw in 1982 ... still going strong, and has
incredible amount of use.
Unlike my other B&D purchases this seems to be built to last.
If I were to need a new one currently, I would not buy Makita, to spend
360 days a year not being used ... just too expensive for DIY use ...
great if you are a chippy and using couple of times a week.
Get a 185mm at least 1200W ...... I'm a fan of DeWalt, but for
occasional use the TITAN looks reasonable value and not bad when I
looked at them. (on sale in Screwfix)
