Default circular saw recommendations

Avoid ultra-cheapies like Ferm. I've had two, one just wore out within
a couple of months, the second broke its central blade retaining nut
on the first pinch - potentially very dangerous.

I've since paid a bit more and got a mid-range Skil. Different class
and much better in every regard.
