Review on Circular saw BOSCH PKS 40, 850 W silver/green by Stanislaw Mlekodaj ᠌

Not everything can be accurately cut in the store, and you still want almost no chips. You understand that the amount of work for a jigsaw becomes too big, the requirements for the surface are higher, you have to buy a hand-held circular saw. For home use, I did not want to take something powerful and heavy, so I began to look at models that I could hold in my hand on weight for some time. You have to cut no more than 15-20mm plywood or MDF. The store has a lot of different china at a price of 1200r, so I was almost ready to take the cheapest, but some had very bad reviews, while others already cost 3-4tr. At first I was going to take PKS 55, but at the last moment something jumped and took PKS 40 in terms of consumer qualities and weight of 2.6 kg. The PKS 40 model is specially designed so that logs are not sawn in the country, but occasionally used at home to fit furniture. I took it to remake kitchen cabinets and cabinets, and it was important for me that the cut was even along the line, and not googled like a jigsaw. I was warned that any home circular gives a lot of chips on the laminated surface and I was worried until I tried the saw in work. The disc was set to 40 teeth, not native, for finishing. The tabletop on the bottom side (where the front was when cutting) turned out perfectly, and on the top (where the cardboard) there were chips, but very small and few. Laminated chipboard also cut evenly, almost without chips. No comparison with a jigsaw. I redid all the boxes to a shallower depth without problems and very quickly. The main thing is to work along the guides if the length of the cut is large. To make the cut edges more accurate, it is recommended to cut the surface on both sides or buy a wood router. I chose the second and took the "green" Bosch POF 1200 AE. Together, it turned out to be a good inexpensive kit with a 2-year warranty from the manufacturer.
