Used for .. what sort of carpentry ?


Dunno, speculate framework in construction?

Followup: One of the pics gives model no. 5402-A

The Makita 16-5/16 in. Circular Saw is powered by a 15 AMP motor with
2,300 RPM, and has a large cutting capacity to handle beams, timber, and
large pressure treated lumber. It will cut 6x material at 90 degrees and
4x material at 45 degrees in a single pass.

BTW it's a circular saw. Makita and Skilsaw are two competing brands.
There's no such thing as a Makita skillsaw. That's like calling a
pickup truck a Chevrolet Ford.

More BTW Amazon has the updated model, 5402NA, for $730.99,
down from list price of $1,172,20. It has a 4.7/5.0 star
rating, so I guess if this is something you have a use for,
it's a pretty good choice.
