  1. Dan, Eric–Looks like a good tool to have for tight areas, as you pointed out. Changing the subject for a moment, I think many small tools are more useful than their full-sized counterparts. I was recently trimming a tree in the front yard with my DeWalt 20V Max reciprocating saw, using a nine-inch pruning blade. I was 15′-16′ up on a ladder and trying to cut a limb off at a crazy angle. The weight of the tool and the fact that I had to use one hand to hold the saw and the other to hold onto the ladder was a little scary. What got me through it was the fact that I could set the blade in one of four positions (two vertical and two horizontal), which enabled me to get a better grip on the saw to make the cut. I wished that I had DeWalt’s smaller version of the saw, which also articulates; there would have been less weight to deal with. It can get into tight areas, which is handy in construction and especially for plumbers working under sinks. As long as the quality and capabilities are there, the smaller tool can often be the better (safer) tool to use.

  2. I think Milwaukee should release an M12 trim saw, i am really liking this idea of a compact circ saw. Buy great writeup Eric, Rockwell makes a good solid tool.

  3. have little craftsman saw with laser and led really liked…what.. go looking for 3 inch blade
    sears discontinued it..blades are nowhere to be found..rockwell might be my next tool.
