Worm drive saw ?????

wrote:
I was looking at some power saws on Ebay and on one of them they said
that the saw was a worm drive. I dont understand this. Are the worms
inside the saw? What do they do to make the saw work? The picture
they showed had an electric cord on it. If the worms are driving the
saw why does it need to be plugged in? Of course I know that
sometimes Ebay sellers dont show the actual picture. Then, how do I
feed these worms? They got to eat something. What happens when they
die, can I order more of them, or can I get them from a bait shop?
They sure come out with some strange devices these days, and I cant
see how a bunch of worms would run around in there to make the saw
turn, but if it cuts wood, thats what counts.

Don't worry, they are wood worms, so if you use the saw at least once a
week they will get plenty of saw dust to eat.
