Interesting video. I've got quite a few Parkside 20v tools, and have not been disappointed with any of them. Particularly, when you consider the price. So, when the 12v, Bosch like tools appeared, I bought a few, and was equally pleased. Alas, the 12v circular saw, well, it's terrible. It vibrates like crazy - even on 12mm softwood - could be down to the blade, but the super slow, 1400rpm speed probably makes it more suited to cutting plastic or thin metal than timber. The tool itself seems fairly well put together, is super compact, and costs £25, body only. I bought it with laminate flooring jobs in mind, and have yet to give that a go, but first impressions are not good.
Once I try it on plastic and laminate, I'll post an update.
Update on the above. I've cut some kitchen splashback panels, 10mm, laminated mdf, and cut laminate flooring on a kitchen job.
Well, as anticipated, with a 4ah battery I had no problems at all. Not sure if the Christmas lights actually mean anything - they seem to come on and go off randomly - but the saw, with the Parkside blade, left a clean cut with virtually no chipping or tearout. I imagine it would be even better sunny side down. I generally use a handsaw when laying laminate - creates less mess,and costs less than a tenner, an important point as, with laminate the saw only lasts one job. These little blades can also be had for under a tenner - even the branded ones - so, the mini saw will be living in the van.
I wasn't aware of these but it looks handy for small jobs, cutting sheet etc. or maybe if you're at the DIY store and the sheet or batten you just bought is too big for the car. It's difficult to tell but maybe the cut looks a bit rough?
Yeah it's an handy little tool for little money, the blade provided the cuts are quite rough.. but you can get Blades with more teeth for finer cuts..
Evening mate, I was wondering, why bother with the 12v system ? Doesnt it lack substantial power compared to the 20v version ? I have a load of Parkside 20v corded tools, including the smaller circular saw, SDS Drill and Jigsaw, which I love. But I'll be looking to grab a few of the cordless ones, come this Sunday as that's when my Lidl are due a big Parkside drop ! Excited for the dual charger and not having to pay an arm and a leg from Ebay.
I didn't know they did a 20v version of this mini saw, thanks.. I will have to keep my eyes open to get one, yes I'm looking forward to Sunday lots of good Parkside tools coming.. 😁
@@CALtheSPAR appericate the reply ! Thanks again 🙂
Out of interest, what was the production date on your saw?
Sorry for the delay, I just checked mine was made the 7/2022,
@@CALtheSPAR thanks for looking for me. same production date as mine, they must have made a huge batch and kept them in storage. I got a jigsaw with the same date too.
Just checked. The date on the tool is: 07/22.
