I only want one so I can destroy some shit with reckless abandon
These points of failure have to be knocking decades of life off of the saw, so I think it'd be pretty cool to get one that somebody had thoughtfully upgraded as a gift (as the guy from your videos mentioned, he used to give the older saws as gifts because they'd last a "lifetime"). I wish there was a market for this kind of thing because I love making mediocre shit into great shit.

the bot i asked seemed to feel the Makita was heavier and torquier.....Both saws have their strengths. The SKILSAW is ideal for users seeking a lightweight, powerful tool for tough jobs, while the Makita hypoid circular saw may be better suited for those who prioritize torque and power, despite its heavier weight and potential blade position drawbacks.
