Topic tags/keywords: humor circular saw beam saw I was looking for a saw to cut thin balsa strips for crafts and came across this.
Would this Protool P-GCP1000-1 handle the job, or do I need something more substantial? |

Or you can use this one to cut railroad ties.

Proxxon has a small table saw especially suited for cutting wood for models, but even this is too much saw for balsa. The single edge razor blade is still the best tool. Harbor Freight has a small circular saw that might interest you. |

Bill, I could start a handyman business. You know, knock on the neighbor’s door holding that thing, ask if they want to install some trim etc. |
Have your say...
