Hi! 8 times, that's how many times you said "bogged down." Bogged down, pinching, stalling, smoking, scorching the cut...been there. I bought a mini circ. saw when I first started because I was hesitant to use a regular size one. Total waste of $$! Might be good for 1/2" or 1/4 " ply. The motor is just too weak. Btw, the world of diy missed you! Glad you're here!
Good and easy to use for beginners yours sounds like theres something wrong you just have to keep it flat and follow through the whole way at the end and get better blades for it for wood one with more teeth
I've had a 3 /12" makata 9.6v and a 12v Craftsman battery powered saws. Both work reasonably, and not willing to keep on spending every time a new version comes out.
Hey I hope you are not done making videos. I really enjoy watching how you build projects and the detail you provide. I’m getting ready to build a few of them.
Glad to see a vid from you. Not a fan of that and although I’m not the safety police, I am skeptical about this tool. Maybe something for 2-by material would work more for me. Anyway, enjoy your new free tool 🤣 and get back to some more videos. P.S. Being a sponsored video, I will leave off with a positive: that vacuum attachment is a great idea!
Good video I'd advise not to have the statement that some safety devices sometimes make things more dangerous. The manufacturer designed it that way to ensure the safety of the user. Not to make things more dangerous.
Thank you! I appreciate your thoughts, but safety equipment doesn’t always make things safer. For example, one of the most dangerous things I’ve found while operating a bench grinder is to wear gloves while operating the tool. Just because it’s designed to make things safer, doesn’t mean that makes it safer.
I have found that these little saws are great for making some delicate precise cuts & I don't like the little "pop up"/"drop down" that the "safety" feature is causing at the end of cuts on this saw, that could bring about some catastrophic damage into something one might have put a lot of time & effort into...looks like something made by a bunch of textbook engineers & not engineers with practical carpentry skills.
You should not be allowed sharp objects. The way you treated that saw makes me wonder why Hychika give you any tools when it's obvious you don't know how to work them properly. Also with technology today I'm sure you could learn mm and cm while you're recovering from your latest mishap.
Japanese brands are still made in China, so might as well just buy Chinese brands, even telsa batteries are made China, so when in rome. p.s maybe the blade is better on chipwood?
I didn’t quit! I’ll be back soon. I moved to Alaska and I haven’t had a chance to make DIY Man videos. You should check out my Adventure channel in the meantime: youtube.com/@AdventureMen?si=0qfIxZkuRXZAs5f3
think im going to pass on that it looks annoying to use and at the 65 dollar price point its more expensive and appears to be less useful than a regular circular saw
we need to go metric no no we dont need to go metric i want you or anyone else to give me one good reason why the metric system is superior to the imperial system and i wont accept the cop out answer it more precise it may very well be more precise but its only as precise as the materials its being used to measure and let me tell you most things are not very precise so using a super precise unit of measurment on a non precision object is just asking for trouble plus most building materials are still imperial measurement measuring imperial lengths in the metric system quite frankly is an excercise in frustration i could keep going but its pointless to continue the metric system isnt good at all for things that arent manufactured to a given metric size or even a precise size in any unit measurment
@@GeorgiaRidgerunner metric is base 10 making it easy to divide any length and get accurate measurements. I guarantee that 24 hour after switching, you would agree. It does require everything to go metric so that would be a small problem. But imperial measurement is simply dark ages mentality
Thanks for this video. Saw it on Amazon. Still deciding if I should get one.
Nice test and good feed back, have to be honet I am tempted to get one for some of my small projects. Looks very handy.
Thank you!

Thanks! Happy to be back for this vid, I hope to get back to making DIY videos very soon.
Glad to see you back
Thanks! I’m in the middle of a big move. I hope to be back more regular very soon

Thanks!
I have noticed your absence. Your projects are always so diy friendly and useful. Hope all is well.
@@julietphillips1991 sorry about that. I am well. I hope to return at some point. I’ve been busy building a house in Alaska
@@DIYMAN Excellent! That means lots of diying being recorded! I appreciate the reply. Take care.

That’s my biggest qualm with battery powered tools
I Have A Ryobi Cordlesd 33/8 Inch
Cut Off Tool. I Havent Tried It Yet
But If I Ever Need It It'll Come In Handy.

Thank you! I’m not done. I hope to start making them again in a few months

Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I feel like the safety guards actually make this tool more dangerous.
Nice review!😀Would you be interested in trying our DOVOH laser level? 😃😃
Thanks! I definitely would! Message me on Facebook and I’ll give you my information
What is cutting disc and spindle diameters? There any other compatible discs from other vendors?
They are 85mm blades with a 10mm arbor
@@DIYMAN thx you! interesting tool.
I’d like the guide
Good video

Yeah, it seems a little bit like those gas cans that don’t pour. Lol
I have one for two years and it’s a good saw.
Use it on hardwood and still the same sawblade.
Nice! That’s great to know! Thanks!
Should replace the guide with other guide which is longer like Milescraft.
it wood have been nice to see an actual plunge cut done. Other than that, good vid
O yeah, guess I could’ve done that. Thanks!
Nice review but this is another very limited use tools. Best to continue to save for full sized tools. Seems clunky to use. I appreciate the review
Yes, that’s my assessment as well. Thanks for the comment
Mini saws are very convenient for fast cutting of sheet materials, if worker alone.
24mm is 1 inch (2.4cm = 1 inch)
It's 20mm not 2. Or 2cm

If they can't cut a 2 by 4 it's not worth it
Interesting but wonky. Will stick to a track saw.
Yeah, I need one of those

Agreed
Americans need to go metric. It’s easier and more accurate. And besides some backwater somewhere, we are the only idiots using inches, feet, yards etc
Lol, very true, but we’ll never take the leap of faith…cuz we’re ‘Merican.
we need to go metric no no we dont need to go metric

NOPE. Must be in inches.
Do not like the release. Bauer is better
I’ll
Have to try it
