    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

    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!

    • @DIYMAN

      Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I feel like the safety guards actually make this tool more dangerous.

  • @MrPhilc1966
    @MrPhilc1966 6 месяцев назад

    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.

    • @DIYMAN
      @DIYMAN  6 месяцев назад

      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.

    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

      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

    • @Barbaralee1205
      @Barbaralee1205 Год назад +1

      @@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
