lets get this issue fixed guys spiral saws are NOT designed for cutting straight or paralell lines in anyway these are designed for curve cutting or roundings or specific work. and they run at 30,000 RPM so can jurk out of the hand. or burn the material being cut. if you are trimming down boards or edging then please use a high quality circular saw with the guide fence at the side and the blade set so that you have enough blade to cover the cut but not so much that the blade is over exposed. I recommend something like a bosch professional circular saw 9 inch if its heavy duty use. take out the blade that comes with it and buy a trend hyper blade. they use a unique blade structure and the higher the kerf of the blade (cuts per blade or teeth / sub teeth) the smoother the cut and the more reliable the machine is and won't throw a wobbler while cutting materials. site saw benches have about 24 teeth on a blade and when you send materials in it can kick back and cause problems. not to mention an accident. if you stick to a pro quality blade then you're happy. I own a HILTI 9 inch circular saw. this is going to be sold along with the rest of the workshop etc. it has a trend hyper XTC blade with 88 teeth with a inverted backside per tooth aiding in the material removal and the minimization of effort applied on the machine. these cheep circular saws always have crap blades and are horrible. and pull back, jam or cause nasty accidents. the better the quality of the saw, you should invest in the best blade. lew
