Can I use a circular saw to cut tree branches?
I don’t think it’s a good idea to use a circular saw to cut a tree branch. I won’t add them to the list because they aren’t meant for trimming trees. The saws that are designed for something other than cutting trees are the same as the other saws.
Why do circular saws cut upwards?
The circular saw blades have teeth that are meant to cut up the material from below. It’s important that you don’t spin them in a different direction than you do the table saw blade.
Which side of the line do you cut with a circular saw?
Circular saws can splinter the wood on the top side, so it’s important to make cuts with the good side facing down. It is possible to reduce splintering by making a cut line on masking tape. If you see that you have deviated from the cut line, then start over.
What saw to buy first?

Can you rip a 2×4 with circular saw?

Why won’t my circular saw cut straight?
If you’re not able to cut straight using your circular saw, you need to check the position of the object. The problem could be that the piece is in a state of disrepair. You need to make sure you are holding the blade in the correct way.
What is the difference between a circular saw and a track saw?

Can I cut baseboard with a circular saw?
If you tilt the base of the circular saw to 45 degrees, you can cut baseboards with it. Wearing safety glasses while operating a circular saw is a must.
Can a circular saw make miter cuts?
It is possible to make crisp, accurate cuts with a circular saw, but it is not easy. It’s hard to get started with the blade guard sticking. The angle of the blade makes it harder to follow a line accurately without twisting the saw.
