Great saw!:
I had been looking to replace my old sidewinder, and found this remanufactured saw to be an unbeatable value. I love the saw and only wish it came stock with a rip guide.
Porter-Cable 324MAG:
I found the Porter-Cable 324MAG Circular Saw to be a great work horse. Plenty of power and light wait for use all day. The quick release feature for the 7-1/4-inch blade makes life easy. The guide and plate are very accurate. I've used many different brands of circular saws but I find this one to be a gem.
