Next up we thought it would be useful to narrow down our search a bit more and only look at Garden Power Tools made by Bosch. We managed to find 102 options at Currys. Bosch hardly needs an introduction when it comes to power tools. One of the biggest names around and loved by DIYers all over the place, their range of tools is incredible. Sitting firmly in their “green” line of affordable DIY level tools, the Bosch PKS 55 Circular Saw is a capable corded circular saw that feature a few of Bosch’s premium features like their CutControl guide and ultra-comfortable grip. It’s not the list powerful corded circular saw on the market, but for the DIYer there’s enough grunt for almost any task around the home or garden. I’ve tested out how this saw performs when cutting through different types of timber
Anything of a nature that for hygiene or associated health and safety - this includes the Outdoor Spas, Mattresses and Divan Sets The CLS timber at 0° was cut incredibly clean, but what really wowed me was how it performed in the English oak. I expected good things, but this cordless saw left a finish to rival the corded Makita saw. It was superbly tidy with fine edges that you could slap some wax on, and call finished!Brand, as mentioned earlier, is another really important factor to consider for buying Garden Power Tools.
To make a fair comparison between the best circular saws available right now, I tested them all against the same pieces of timber. Starting with some standard constructional timber, I made a series of cross cuts at 0°. I then performed a series of cuts at 45° to test the motor strength and how easy it was to adjust the bevel. It’s really good at this stage to spend some time just getting an idea of the sort of price you can expect to pay for your Garden Power Tools. When you’re spent a bit of time looking at the prices, consider setting yourself a budget.
Summary
Our first area to study is normally the features. We’ve given a full list of features for BOSCH PKS 55 Handheld Circular Saw above. This should give you a good idea of how good the product is in terms of features and functionality. The handles are as comfortable as to be expected from Makita. I’ve always liked that they print the material type on the parts. I know for a fact that the lovely grip shape and feel comes from thermoplastic elastomer, a mixture of plastic and rubber that is ideal for these sorts of parts. We searched for all of the Garden Power Tools that we could find at Currys. In total we found 180 different products available. Weighing in at just 3.9 kg, I’ve got no complaints about the weight of this saw. Aimed at DIYers, it doesn’t need to be the beefiest heavy duty saw, but it’s not so light that it feels like a flimsy toy. Sure, the bevel adjustment handle is plastic, but it doesn’t slop compared with the levers on the Evolution saw. MATERIAL - Fully hardened steel blade body – delivers accuracy and resists bending and deflection for true cuts. Tungsten carbide teeth provide excellent wear and heat resistance. The positive cutting angle provides fast and efficient removal of chips and swarf.
And seeing as the motor is on the right, you can use a roofing square or other set square to chop a parallel crosscut in no time at all. If you’re ganging up work, it saves a noticeable amount of time. Lightweight, compact design – Forget bulky machinery, because the lightweight, ergonomic design make it effortless to handle. To make a decent side by side comparison of all the circular saws I’ve tested out, I started with the simplest test and then worked up to something a bit more challenging.COMPATIBILITY – Festool, Dewalt Bosch, Makita, Ryobi and other circular saws which use a 160mm blade with a 20mm or 16mm bore. 16mm reduction ring included. Scottish Highlands & Islands postcodes: AB, FK, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE, LL58-LL78, IM, TR, PO30-41 It’s a good thing too that it was stable, because I was forced to push the saw quite hard when ripping through softwood. I’ll put this down to the blade size, as the 1,200 Watt motor should be powerful enough for these sorts of jobs. If I was going to buy a cordless saw for working away from the national grid or up a ladder, this would be it. The first thing I did with this Bosch PKS 55 Circular Saw is take it out of the box. I’ve always liked Bosch boxes; they’re covered in useful information. But what I really liked was on the inside. In the place of piles of polystyrene was a clever moulded cardboard insert. Not only is it better for the environment, but it held the saw tightly in the box. A good start!
