Mini Circular saw for the man cave without the space or need for the big boys toys

We’ve looked at some of the cool stuff WORX have done in the past, and frankly their SD handheld cordless unit has been a huge hit in our household.  But when it comes to the bigger tools like circular saws, they aren’t the kind of thing everyone has in their tool shed.  WORX have a new product to reduce size and make things easier.

The WX427 is a smaller than normal circular saw, cutting to a depth of 45mm with a 120mm blade.  It can cut 30mm at 45 degrees and runs at a no-load speed of 3500rpm.

For those doing basic DIY tasks there’s no need for the bulky types of circular saws you might be used to seeing, so this is a great alternative.

It’s $149 and will be available from December 1.

EFTM reckons it’s a great looking unit, but we wonder if it would be better placed as a cordless unit, and the size alone might not make the price worthwhile.   Leaving that aside, for size and portability it’s a real winner.
