But for woodworking, I'm not sure a wormdrive saw is the best choice. The
slower blade speed seems to produce a rougher edge. At least that's been my
experience.

Although a big fan of Milwaukee tools, I prefer the Skilsaw Mag 77. I've
used both many times and the Skil (or the Bosch equivalent) is hands down
a
better saw for general construction projects.

It's seems that the East coast framers use sidewinders and the West coast
guys prefer the wormdrive. I don't know why by I'll stick with the worm.

Went out to get myself a new circular saw for my Christmas gift today.
Consumer Reports listed the Milwaukee 6390-21 as their top pick, but
all I could find at my local Home Depot was the 6391-21. Anyone know
if there are any significant differences between the 6390 and the 6391?
Thanks.
